The FOUR Primavera P6 Relationship TYPES

When planning schedules and working with activities in Primavera P6, there are 4 different ways they can be linked.
These links are called activity relationships and Michael explains the 4 different types in depth here. This is part of our P6 Foundations Course, which teaches Primavera P6 to beginners so they can use the software at a professional level.

Totally agree with you about the backwards planning/scheduling. Most of the time we this method when we know what the end results should look like then we plan backwards in order to determine FEL..

I love watching your explanation of P6 logic. i have troubled regarding resources. Can we define separate Recourses list to each individual project under on EPS?

I don't use SF relationship, if Task A (even without predecessors) must be finished prior to the start of Task B, which has other driving predecessors, I will put a As late as possible constrain in Task A which is FS linked to Task B. So if the Task B is to move forward or backwards, the Task A will follow accordingly. The benefit is when in future there will be predecessors for Task A, the Task B is still under the sway of the movement of Task A.

Don’t we say in start to finish relationship, Successor activity cannot finish till predecessor activity has started .
