Create and Configure Dependency Links

Set up dependency roles, create links visually by dragging between task bars, and configure link direction.

Configure Advanced Dependency Types (FS, SS, FF, SF)

Enable and configure all four dependency types beyond the default Finish-to-Start.

Configure Link Lag and Delay

Add lag (delay) or lead time between dependent tasks to model realistic scheduling gaps.

Disable Dependency Linking

Prevent users from creating new dependency links in the Gantt chart while preserving existing ones.

Dependency Metadata Storage

Understand how advanced dependency type and lag information is stored in Polarion work item fields.
If you have not created a dependency link before, start with the Create Your First Dependency Link tutorial for a step-by-step introduction.
