dependencies cross projects

Michael deHaas

From my understanding task dependencies are only available to another task if both those tasks are in the same project or subproject.

Is this a true statement?   Or should Project allow you to link a dependencies from 2 or more unrelated projects?

Reason I ask is for the fact I have a program (project) that has 13 streams (sub-projects) that each of those have potentially 2-5 sub-projects.

My understanding is I had to have everything under the main Program 'Project'.   If I have this it makes things like the GANTT CHART very busy and long.

Any guidance on what is abilities and/or best practice for such a large program and their dependencies.

Thanks!

Michael

Hello Michael,



I am interested to know how did you manage to define and track the project dependencies in servicenow?

HI Arun, We have a few programs and the projects within them have dependencies. Is there a way to do that in PPM yet?

I figured it out it is done using external dependencies find_real_file.png
