There’s a few different ways to add a dependency to issues in your plan.
The quickest way to create a dependency is using the drag and drop method. With your timeline visible, select an issue’s dependency badge icon next to its timeline bar, and drag it to the schedule bar of the issue to which you want to link it, as shown in the picture below.
Alternatively, select the dependency badge icon to open a menu that allows you to manually create the dependency.
From your Program board, select More (•••) on an issue, and select Add dependency. In the window that opens, select the type of relationship you want to create, and nominate the other issue. Use Add to save your dependency.
You can also create a dependency from the Dependency report view of your plan.
Choose the Add dependency button beneath the Review changes button, and configure your dependency in the menu that appears. When you’re done, select Add.
