In most projects, relationships exist between tasks. For example, a task called Order Bricks must finish before a task called Build Wall can begin. To illustrate this relationship, eSuite scheduler lets you link related tasks together.
When one task is linked to another it means that the start date of the second task is dependent upon the end date of the first task. This is known as a finish-to-start relationship. When the end date of the first task moves forward or backward in time, the start date of the second task follows it, to show that the second task is dependant on the first.
By default, eSuite scheduler links each task to the previous task as you enter tasks. If you create a task hierarchy, each subordinate task within a summary task is linked to one another.
