Hello,
I’m trying to make the duration of a task dependable of his (constrained) successor, but can’t figure it out ...
Meaning, i don’t won’t to set a duration for the task, this should be calculated depending on the successors beginning wich is a milestone. When the milestone is moved, the task-duration will be adapted also.
Ho can i do this ?
Thanks to the replyers in advance !
Dan

    Hello Dan,

    What you describe looks like a Hammock activity:

    To behave as expected, the activity should have a ’Hammock’ Activity Type, and should be linked to one predecessor with a Start to Start relationship, and to one successor with a Finish to Finish relationship (meaning that in your case the successor should be a Finish Milestone).

    Hope this helps
