In Structure.Gantt, dependencies are defined based on Issue Links. Changing dependencies creates or removes links between issues (the link type is defined in the Gantt configuration).
Structure.Gantt supports the following types of dependencies:
By default, the dependency transition happens immediately. For example, in an FS dependency, the second item starts as soon as the first item finishes. If you need to delay a start/finish or begin it early, you can configure a lead/lag time for dependencies.
To create a dependency between two tasks, drag from one task to another. The type of dependency you create will depend on the sides of each task you use:
If you have more than one link type associated with the dependency type you selected, you will be asked which link type you want to use.
You can use favorites to streamline the selection process:
The type of dependencies and link types you can create in Structure.Gantt depends on the types you have enabled in the Gantt Configuration. |

You can also create dependencies using the Gantt toolbar:
If you haven't configured a Dependency Type, you won't be able to select it in the New Dependency menu.
In order to use these dependency types, you first need to configure them in your Gantt Configuration.

It is also possible to create dependencies between non-issues items (
folders that have been turned into milestones or folders being treated as a Group |
Structure Folders and Memos |
), as well as between issues and non-issues. These dependencies are stored inside Structure.Gantt and are not visible outside of the chart.
To view or edit the details of an existing dependency, click the link arrow connecting two tasks.
To delete a dependency, click the Remove link in the Dependency Properties panel.
