3. The Status field is set to the default, Valid, indicating that the dependency is
in effect. When you cancel a dependency, this field automatically changes to
Invalid.
You can also set this field to Invalid while you are creating tasks and
dependency relationships, to hide them from the plan as you work.
You can also change the dependency Status field to Invalid to help
you troubleshoot your project. Turn off the dependency and click the
Recalc button on the APM:Projects form record, and repeat as
necessary to track down a problem by eliminating the possible effects
of dependencies.
4. Click Save to save your changes. Close the form to return to the task record.
Create Inter-project Dependencies
In ActionProgram Manager, dependency relationships can also be created
between projects by performing the following steps. ((When inter-project
dependencies exist, the Gantt char of any project within that dependency will
show all of the projects associated together and can become quite a large group.))
1. Open the Task record of the dependent task or second task in the sequence.
2. Open the Dependency tab.
3. In the Inter-project Dependencies section, click the Create IPD button.
The APM:Risk Management form opens, where you can create Interproject Dependencies. See Figure 46, as follows.
