Hello, new guy here. I've seen several different schedules, by several different schedulers, that have their LOEs with the SS and FF relationships as predecessors only. Reading up on all the material I can find nearly everyone says, from P6 documentation to people on various boards, the activity that starts the LOE is the predecessor with a SS relationship and the activity the finishes the LOE is the successor with a FF relationship. There are just a few forum posts where users will say that LOEs have no successors but I cannot find where any reason, other than just that statement, is given.
So, now on to the question, which is correct? Is there a reason that the predecessor to a LOE should include both the start and finish activity? I'm wondering if it is just a bad habit that perpetuated itself through the scheduling ranks or maybe there actually is a good reason for it, perhaps a work-around of some kind.
Thank you all for your help.
