Hi,

Hi,

You can make a task start AT LEAST 2 days after an other task
Double-Click on the successor tasks's row (any cell will do) and in the
predecessor's column, select the predecessor's name or ID, type= Start to
Start, Lag=2d.

Maau,
Yes, the simplest structure is with a lag in the task's predecessor. For
example, if you want task 11 to start 2 working days after task 10, the
the Predecessor for task 11 should be:
10SS+2d

If you want calendar days instead of working days, then use:
10SS+2ed

Not quite.
What you can do is say that the successor task cannot start any earlier than
2 days after the predecessor task starts.
It may seem a trial distinction but it can make all the difference in the
world.
Double click the successor for Task Information, Predecessors, and set the
predecessor to SS+2d.
