Gantt Chart Dependencies: Understanding Task Dependency Types

Project managers use Gantt charts and Gantt chart software to track the dependencies between their project's tasks, which are visual tools created during the project planning phase and are used to show a wide range of project data. ProjectManager allows users to create and view milestones with a free trial of ProjectManager. Gantt Chart Dependencies refer to how project tasks are related and can be interrelated and influenced by one another. Gantt charts are an excellent way to create and see tasks, but it is important to understand the four types of Gantt Chart Dependencies. These dependencies are represented by horizontal bars which show task duration, and each task is dependent on another.

When you don't know what these dependencies look like and what they mean, Gantt charts can become jumbled and confusing. Knowing these dependencies is key to learning to speak Gantt chart.
