I just started recently in scheduling and I only have a basic skills in linking activities, please I need an advice to apply it in P6. 

"Relatioships" or "sequencing" of activities are based on experience and logic. Suggestion please, where/how can I start learning or to have this knowledge?  

any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

    I'm so sorry, I didn't mean

    I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to post 3 topics which are all the same. It's my internet connection problem. Thank you for understanding.

    You might be over thinking

    You might be over thinking this.  PDM relationships (FS, SS, FF, SF) are just means to estalish the order in which work must be performed.  Ex.:

     

    Wake up [ FS -> ] Get out of bed [ FS -> ] Shower [ FS -> ] Brush teeth [ FS -> ] Get dressed

     

    Have to finish one task before you can start the next one.  Easy.

    After getting dressed some

    After getting dressed some people will drive to their jobs but you would be surprised how many women finish getting dressed while driving, so yu might have:

    Female partially dressed [FS] Female Driving Car

                                     [SS] Female finishing make-up while driving.

    Definitivelly not as easy as FS relationship.

    Hi Rafael

    After a heavy night I have often experienced driving to work while still asleep.

    Best regards

    Mike,Make sure you wake up

    Mike,

    Make sure you wake up after reaching your destination, otherwise it would be a circular reference.
