Assigning Successor Relationships
You can assign successor relationships to the activities in your project.
To assign a successor relationship:
- Open one or more projects in the Projects section using one of the following methods:
- Click
Projects to open the last project or group of projects you were working with. - Click the
Projects menu and choose one of the most-recently used projects or group of projects. - Click the
Projects menu and choose Open Projects to select a project or group of projects by portfolio type, EPS node, or project code.
- On the Projects navigation bar, click
Activities. - On the Activities page, select an activity to which you want to assign successors and click the Successors detail window.
- In the Successors detail window, click
Assign (Insert). - In the Select Successor Activity dialog box, assign activities and click Close.
- On the Activities page, click the Actions
menu and select Save (Ctrl+S).
Tips
- You can assign relationships to multiple activities at one time. Select multiple activities using Ctrl+click or Shift+click. Right-click the selected activities and select Link Selected Activities. Based on their sequence in the view, the application creates Finish to Start relationships between selected activities. That is, a Finish to Start relationship is applied between the first and second activity, between the second and third activity, and so on. If an activity pair already has an Finish to Start relationship, the application tries, in turn, to apply each of the other relationship types, if possible. Otherwise, no relationship is applied to the pair.
- When selecting a predecessor or successor activity, you can choose from activities in the open projects only.
