Linking Projects

Within Apps 10 I’m able to connect activities between different projects, using the Planning function but what would be really useful is if you could see that connection on the Gantt view.

Is there anyway of seeing connected projects with IFS Apps 10 ?

We have large projects which have dependencies from smaller projects, they need to be kept separate for accounting purposes but it does make it hard to see, at a scheduling level, the inter project dependencies.

You can see it in the Gantt view, or maybe I’m misunderstanding? Just search for the projects you have links between. 

 

 

Thanks Anmise,

I must be doing something wrong as I don’t see the connection in the Gantt view. I only see one Project, not the one it’s connected to. Is there a setting or something I’m missing to enable this ?

Which client are you working in?

 

 

Working in EE at the moment 

I see the dependencies within one project but not the linkage to the other project

and the activity is linked to a separate project, as shown in the Planning Predecessors tab

what you’ve shown me is exactly what I’m after….. it feels like there’s a setting somewhere that I’m missing
