Don't Show Successor Task in My Task if Predecessor is not Complet

F

In PWA My Tasks 'Show Only Current Tasks' check box works as per Current
Tasks Displayed Setting under Server Settings (default to 10 days).

Is there a way to automatically hide successor task in PWA > My Tasks as
long as the predecessor task has not yet completed for a Finish to Start
relationship?

TaskA

|-> TaskB

If the successor task falls within the Current Task Displayed range of 10
days, then both tasks show up for the resource in My Tasks page even with the
'Show only Current Tasks' option checked.

Need some ideas!

Good to hear from you. In order to do this, you'd need to create a web part
that acts on the data in the grid to hide the successor. I don't think that
this is generally a good idea because there is often hidden negative lag in
finish-to-start relationships and you don't discover this until the resource
begins the work early. In real life, there often is a percentage of the
successor work that can be completed before the predecessor completes.

Hi,

We can write a macro that will check for 100% completion of each task in
active project;based on that it will change the PUBLISH field for the
sucessor task to TRUE else FALSE and if publish field is FALSE then
accordingly sucessor task will not be seen in My task page unti the
predecessor completes to 100%...try it works fine...at my place...
