Linking the same tasks with multiple relations?
Linking the same tasks with multiple relations?
(OP)
Hi...
I've just recently started using MS Project and i was really amazed by the appealing interface... but i have just discovered that i can't link 2 tasks with 2 or more relations... meaning that i can't for example link tasks no. 2 & 3 with both SS AND FF relations (i'd like to do that with lags included too)... i get a message that i can't do that... is there a way to get around this? I really would like to avoid Primavera...
Thanks in advance...

Split task 3 into two tasks with a FS relationship. Then make 2 SS with 3a & FF with 3b.

If you add resources to task 3 be aware that you can only put in actuals in the task usage or resource usage views, because it is a summary bar it will be tricky to deal with with respect to actuals and work done.
