Assigning Successor Relationships

You can assign successor relationships to the activities in your project.

To assign a successor relationship:

  1. On the  Navigation Menu, expand  Projects and click Activities.
    1. On the Activities page, select the activities to which you want to assign successors.
    2. Click  Context and select Assign Successors.
    3. In the Assign Relationships panel:
      • Select one or more activities from the Assign Successors list and click Assign Successors.
      • Click  Close.
    4. On the Activities page, click Save.

Tip

  • Only Finish to Start relationships are created in the Assign Relationships panel. To create other types of relationships create the relationships in the Gantt View. Alternatively you can create the relationships in the Assign Relationships panel and then change the relationship type manually in the Relationships detail window.
  • You can also change an existing relationship in the Successors detail window. To choose a different successor, select the Activity ID field in an existing relationship and choose a different activity from an open project. The Relationship type and lag will be maintained if you select a new successor.
  • When selecting a predecessor or successor activity, you can choose from activities in the open projects only.
