Task dependencies & relationships

Link tasks together and set up dependencies so you can control the order of work and see how tasks are connected across projects.

Task dependencies and relationships help you keep your work organized by making it clear how tasks connect to each other. This feature solves the problem of missing steps or working out of order by letting you link tasks and set up rules like blocking, waiting on, or related to. You can connect tasks across different projects or lists, so you always know what needs to happen first and how changes in one place affect others.

With this feature, you can mark a task as "waiting on" another, so you don't start too soon. Visual indicators show you which tasks are connected, making it easy to see dependencies at a glance. You can also control how changes to dates or timelines update connected tasks, giving you flexibility to match your workflow.

For example, if you're launching a new product, you might set "Client Approval" to wait on "Design Mockups." This ensures the approval process only starts after the design is done, avoiding confusion or wasted effort.

You can customize how dependencies behave, so updates to one task can automatically adjust others. This helps you manage complex projects without missing steps or causing delays.
