How to set the start date on a given day of week after predecessor completes
If I have a task that can only happen on a Tuesday (e.g. that's when an approval committee meets), and all the predecessors are scheduled to complete the previous Thursday, how do I schedule the task to start on the first Tuesday after the predecessor completes?

Genevieve P. Employee AdminYou can add Lag Days to dependent tasks by adding that number to the Predecessor cell: +2d
See the bottom of this Help Article:Work with Duration and Predecessors
