Here's an interesting point referring to Ron's reply. When you run your project through a QSRA, of course if you have too high % of SS or FF relatiionships (over 10%) it will be marked down. So effectively you are punished for having too many milestones.

Invalid Relationships are relationships referring to parts of a milestone that are not there. Does a Start Milestone have a finish date? NO, so it should not have a Finish-to-start successor relationship. There is no finish date to ‘attach’ the relationship to.
On the other hand, dies a Finish Milestone have a start date? NO, so it should not have a Finish-to-start predecessor. P6 will let you assign this relationships, but this report will flag them.

What you say makes sense, though in truth, I never thought about it. However, I'm not getting any error message (Invalid Relationship) though I have several FS connections to a Finish Milestone. I'm using P6 8.3. Just curious. Thanks.
