Successors column in Timeline View
Would be great to have the ability to show a "Successors" column as well as a "Predecessors." You can see it on the Gantt, but having it on the table view makes the Timeline view that much more functional, particularly for long chains of dependencies.
I second this. Having to visually trace the successor in the Gantt chart isn't effective. Having a column would make Wrike more powerful.
I agree. It is hard to trace the logic with just predecessors, particularly when you've got a large programme.
I'm very surprised they don't support this. Any person coming from MS Project is used to using this heavily to trace a dependency chain. It is a very important and basic PM feature for complex projects.
I agree with this thread. My projects have a fixed delivery date so being able to schedule tasks backwards to know when you should be starting would be a great feature.
Hi everyone, thanks a lot for suggesting and supporting! I'm checking with the team now and I'll get back to you as soon as possible!

I so agree with this thread. Really need this for proper project planning and I am very surprised that this is not available in Wrike. This should be basic functionality to show the successors in a column of a table view.
Hi again, everyone! I've checked with the team - they don't have this in their short-term plans, so please keep upvoting and sharing your use-cases, it really helps the team understand the popularity here. Any updates - I'll let you know.

I agreed too, to be able to plan a project, tracing the decencies is essential. I think the successors column should be added to the views too.

I agree. In most programs I have worked on, there are always predecessor and successor and it is important to have both to identify dependencies. Not sure why it is difficult for wrike to implement this relatively simple feature considering this request was first made more than 4 years ago.

I asked for this in November 2020, earlier in this thread. To me this is the most important feature that is missing in Wrike, and it does not appear to be a priority for Wrike to implement. It is very important to be able to easily see both dependencies as columns in all views. I really hope that Wrike will implement this soon to provide as a significant improvement.

I see this thread goes back 4 years, but with no apparent progress from the Wrike team. I'm new to Wrike, so still feeling my way around, but, coming from an MS Project background, I see this is an important requirement.

C'mon Wrike, why isn't this simple function not completed yet? 4 year?!
Joke! the Project Feedback Page doesn't have a search option. Where do I upvote this?
Thanks a lot for your interest Juda Glick! You can upvote a suggestion under the main post in the thread:

I too can't believe this is not supported and visible by default in an exposed field.
No one plans a project just based on predecessors.
We need to know who is dependent on our tasks and higher level PM's need to see the full chain of predecessors and successors.
