Advanced Dependency Options
planned
Jeremy Benson
Many times when scheduling I need two tasks to finish at the same time and want to know the required start dates. I would suggest that additional dependency options other than "blocks" or "is blocking" like Start/Start Start/Finish Finish/Finish and +/- days modifiers are needed.

Any chance this is going to relate to this - https://feedback.clickup.com/feature-requests/p/reschedule-dependencies-when-moving-the-task-to-an-earlier-date

Merged in a post:
Traditional Predecessor, Relationship or Dependency
Vanessa Machado
It would be helpful if the dependency feature was more representative of traditional PM relationships such as:
Finish-to-Start
Finish-to-Finish
Start-to-Start
Start-to-Finish
It would also be helpful if this was simply a number referring to a task on the list with a field available to be shown in list views. The only other way to do this now is through the Gantt view and it is not the best/easiest way. Dependencies, predecessors or relationships should be more geared towards project managers and reduce the number of clicks required to prepare timelines.
Also including Lag times!!

Hello everyone - I'm happy to inform you that we are currently working on this feature. Stay tuned for a release date.
German Ramirez
Bugra Oktay Thank you. Looking forward to these features: Finish to Start (FtS), Finish to Finish (FtF), Start to Finish (StF), Start to Start (StS). This allows for advanced project management planning. It would be great to be able to add lags between the dependencies as well--both positive and negative. Thanks again. It would be great to be able to add lags between the dependencies as well.

Bugra Oktay Our team desperately needs these dependencies for our tasks. The office will continue to use MS Project until this feature appears in Clickup, which is unfortunate. Are there any approximate dates for when this feature will be available?

Bugra Oktay Great, I hope this update solves my problem. If I move a blocking activity to another, the blocked activity should move only if the slack between the 2 is zero.

I need this too!!1

The dependency function is far too cumbersome for clickup to move beyond task collaboration (for which is it fantastic) and become a true project management tool like MS Project, Smartsheet, and Hive.
Dependency field can only be made visible in list view, not table(!) or even Gantt(!!!)
Editing dependencies is very click-heavy and time consuming
Only finish-to-start dependencies are possible, and no lags can be included
There is no duration field
I'm glad to see traction on the parent/child task date relationship, but these other items must be fixed. These are super basic functionalities that all PM tools must have.

Bugra Oktay
Michael Kuczewski: I hear you. We are working on closing those gaps. For instance, duration field is out now.

Michael Kuczewski
Bugra Oktayyes, but only as a top-tier feature. This is basic functionality that should exist at all tiers.

Ooh yes! This would be very helpful for our team. Any update on when this is planned to be worked on?

Bugra Oktay
Tanner Byas: it is in the works. Will soon share the availability date.

Actually I would like custom fields related to Relationships where we can input our own values of how we visualize our workflow.
These fields will be created on every link for further clarification of links.

Any update on this one ClickUp?

Bugra Oktay
Robert Hudman: we are currently working on it.

I wish this was done so we could stay. Great program, but bigger projects are not possible without the four dependency types and workflow/logic behind them.

Bugra Oktay
Ian Hooper: I hope you are still with us. This feature and many project management capabilities are coming very soon.
