Hi,
I have multiple projects to be managed under a program. I have a task1 under Project A which has dependency on task2 of Project B. How can I mark dependencies between two project tasks?
thanks,

Hello,
Thanks for your post! It sounds like you have multiple Project Sheets, and some of these projects have tasks that are dependent upon tasks in other projects. Smartsheet doesn't currently support cross-sheet dependencies, but there are some workarounds that others have used. You can also submit a Product Enhancement Request with the quick link to the right.
To workaround this limitation, one option is to insert a row in the sheet which dependent sheet, then use cell links to populate the row with the task information from the sheet which contains the predecessor. Once this row is inserted and cell linked, you can then link tasks to this new row with predecessors.
Depending on the size of your projects, you may also be able to consolidate your Projects into a single Project Sheet with each project separated by a level of Hierarchy. I've included some related links below:
I hope this helps!

I created a new sheet for my team by replicating an older sheet and now my tasks aren't pulling into my task report or any of my teammates. I confirmed the sheet was selected in my report but it still isn't pulling in. I've never had an issue with this before so would love some advice on troubleshooting.
Hi Everyone, I created some forms for our powdercoat test logs. The forms are working great for the employees to input the data. The problem I am having is with giving the supervisors and managers access to the sheet. I gave them Editor Cannot Share permissions to see and edit the sheet. But they are saying that Smartsheet…
