Project planning has never been so easy

Two Task Link Behaviors

Task links define constraints between tasks, controlling how dates of linked tasks adjust when a task's date changes. QuickPlan supports two link types.

Please note the different conditions for moving successor tasks.

Finish to Start: The traditional "Finish to Start" link ensures a predecessor's finish date is not later than the successor's start date.
- If moving a predecessor pushes its end date past the successor's start date, the successor moves to maintain the constraint.
- Moving a successor does not affect the predecessor. Task links are typically used for rescheduling during execution, where completed (past) tasks remain unchanged.
- A task can have multiple predecessors and successors.
Simple Link: Tasks are linked like a chain. Moving a task simultaneously moves all its successors in the chain.
- All successors move in sync with the predecessor.
- Moving a successor does not affect the predecessor. Task links are typically used for rescheduling during execution, where completed (past) tasks remain unchanged.
- A task can have multiple predecessors and successors.
- Developed based on user feedback, this feature offers a more natural linking behaviors than traditional types, though it is not standard in other planning apps.
