Hi
I am struggling to define what i am lookingg for but here goes,
I am looking to filter my schedule (gantt chart) and trace the logic to see which task are the sucessors sucessor sucussor et al. from start to finish for multiple tasks
I have used the trace logic but it doesn't give me the view i am looking for.
Basically we have multiple drawings which are running late but i want to filter for only the tasks which are impacted going forward, through to the end of the project.
Hope this makes sense and hopefully someone can suggest how to filter or display the above.
Thanks in advance.
here is what to do instead of look to see the logic to see which task are the sucessors I suggest that you start at the end and look for the predecessor that are driving you and running you late.
creat a new code call it tracking and give it a code value of track
add this code as a column
in the relationships tab on the predecessors left hand right click and select customize predecessor columns and expand the general category can bring over the critical and driving as columns in the predecessor window.
only filter for ONE ACTIVITY which is the last actvity that is running late in the group that you are looking for
go to the activity that you want to track now look at this predcessor and look for the activity that has both the driving AND the critical box checked cllick on that predecesor now at the bottom click GOTO
keep doing this by tracking back the driving and criticla predecessor with you get back to the data date or the activity that is already completed.
this is your drive for that activity
now in the coulumn that you just added called tracking click on the first activity and select the new code TRACK
now do a fill down for this column
now you and filter for this column
If you have another activity that you want to track just add a new value TRACK1 and do the same thing.
