Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Change your bar view to show float as well. You have some activities with no successor or long float which changes the critical path.

Thanks for the reply!

All the invalid relationships has an Finish milestone actvity type because it is all completion works.

I need to determine the logical and real critical path but the result is very far from reality.

try using finish milestones and FF links (for invalid relationships)

for expected critical path - try to use FS links (only!)
