I was wondering if it is possible to create a task whose duration is determined by two predecessors, one from backward planning and one from forward constraints. I would like to use this, among others, to show dynamic contingency periods in my project.
Let's take the simplest example, a project with the following three lines:
1. Milestone 1 at the start of the project, say, 8/29/16.
2. Milestone 2 at the required completion date of the project, say, 9/30/16.
3. A task, "Contingency," with a non-zero duration. The end date of this task should be determined backwards by the predecessor on Line 2, while the start of the task should be determined forward by the predecessor on Line 1.
That's not what I want. Is there a way of getting this done?
Thanks
