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?

Hi @mvanderv
You 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
