How to create a Task whose end date is dependent on the start date of the next task

A
arif khan 👤 Member for 14 years 11 months

Hi,

I have two tasks, Task A and Task B. Task A starts on 1/Sep/2011 and Task B starts on 1/Dec/2011. Task A's Finish is dependent on Task A's start i.e. it finishes 20 days (exact) after Task B starts. In case Task B's start date moves to say 15/Dec/2011, Task A's finish should automatically move to reflect the new finish date.

How do I represent this relationship in MS project?

Thank you

Arif

Easiest bar chart software for Leadership recommendation needed

I have been asked what software is available for the non PM type person who has no skills at planning or scheduling.  The object is to draw simple bar charts with many milestone types.  MSP has been ruled out as "too difficult to learn" and using XLS/PPT was "too cumbersome".  Is their anything between MSP and XLS/PPT that is a simple drag/drop for activity bars/milestone (various shapes)?  Milestone Professional?

Query on P10, 50 and 90 schedules

Hey folks. I've recently ben made a junior planner and trucked of for P6 training to manage an existing project plan. Unfortunately I don't have anyone of seniority or technical experience to field amateur hour questions with, thankfully I've found this website and hope to get some answers.

My current pressing query (that I first referred to the wiki to try and answer and googled furiously to no avail) is a decent definition of what a P10, P50 or P90 schedule actually are.
