Dependencies between Projects

Information

  • There are three ways to map dependencies between projects in PLANTA project:

    • Direct dependencies between projects

      • This function allows you to define one or more dependent projects for each project.

      • In the Dependencies module you can create and review dependencies between projects.

      • The dependencies created here are of purely informative nature and do not have an impact on the dates of the respective projects.

    • Cross-Project Links

      • Cross-project or external links connect the tasks of different projects.

      • Their effect is similar to that of links within a project, i.e. the cross-project links have an influence on the dates of all connected projects.

      • When calculating a project which is connected via external links, the projects it is connected to are included in the calculation. This results in the creation of a total network of all projects involved.

    • External Tasks

      • This function allows you to have tasks of another project/program displayed in the schedule of a project/program. You can, e.g., have milestones displayed which are decisive for your own project, which provides a clear overview within the project.

      • The display of the tasks of a project in another project is of purely informative nature and has no impact on the dates of the projects involved.
