Good day all you Planning Professionals! I beseech you for your wisdom. A lowly CM seeks a simple(well,,not for me) answer to a simple question. I am using MS Project 2013. I want to create a dependency from finish to start but i'm not sure how to do it, because the dates aren't exactly end to start necessary.
The situation: I am wrapping scaffolding around a builidng i want to work on. And yes,,technically i need the scaffolding up before i can begin, but the reality is that, its a big builidng, and if i start at one end of the building, by the time it's 30% complete, i can have men on the scaffolding working away while the balance installation continues.
How do i do this kind of dependency?
This is really important because i now want to insert an additional task inbetween other works, and i'm hoping that with depencency's inseerted, i won't have to manually configure the whole plan. It'll just automatically drop the whole plan down or on, in length/duration, so i won't have to change the whole plan.
Much appreciated!! Thank you. Timothy
