Hello Lisa Just want to follow up here. Is this still being considered for the new table view? I don't see predecessors as a column option in our new table view.  Thanks!

Agreed, but its not the only thing still missing. No roll-up functionality, no budget column either, if its 'New table' make it the table view but new. Or call it something else? 

I believe its been created to deal with larger amounts of info due to the old table using older code. Which great, by all means improve it, but build in the other good table functionality too and then ditch the old laggy and out of date table. 

Due to the missing elements this new table view is currently unusable for our projects as its impossible to utilise our financial tracking custom fields we use in 'Table'.

Hey folks, thank you for your feedback on the new Table View! It's still being enhanced, so it's great to see how you'd like it to work in the future 🙂 The predecessors column is planned to be added soon, along with other updates. We'll keep you posted in our Weekly Release Notes, so please subscribe if you haven't yet!

it's been 6 months since you said we would see this in the New Table View but we haven't seen any updates...do you have a sense of timing as to when we'll have this in our instance? Thanks.

Hi Mark Di Biase, thanks for checking in here. 

We don't have a timeframe right now to share, but this should be sooner rather than later and we'll be sure to update you as soon as we've more concrete details to share. Thanks for your patience 🙂

I second this - hope that predecessors are added VERY soon! It's key functionality and necessary if this new table view is going to replace the old.  

Welcome to the Community Katie Gomez (EL), and thank you for sharing your feedback 🙌 We'll keep you posted!

Lisa any update on when predecessor col will be available in new table view? Agree to the above.  This is critical to using this table.

Hello Lisa, I second Katie Gomez's sentiment from May 16, 2023. Predecessors need to be added VERY soon! It's key functionality and necessary if this new table view is going to replace the old.  

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your feedback Liz Morrison! We'll keep you posted.

The only reason I'm still using the old Table view is lacking the Predecessor column in the New table view. Looking forward to seeing it there soon.

Hi, we see the predecessor column, but I cannot view the new table by predecessor.  The new table view is listed by alphabetic order of tasks.  How can we view the project tasks by predecessor in the new table view?

thanks

Did you click on the start date col so they reorder themselves in start date order?  This should show the by date according to predecessor.  Make sure arrow is pointing up to see first to last.

I see the Predecessors column has been added to the Table View, but this is the most relevant thread that I can find to ask this question -- how do I read it? 

For example, in the below screenshot it's clear that the predecessor to each task is in the row indicated by the number, but what are the "SS" and "FS" appended to the rows?

It would be helpful to understand this so I could assign dependencies to tasks in table view. Right now I either open each task and add them inside it, or switch to Gantt view. I'd prefer to be able to do everything from the Table.  

You can type the line item number for each predecessor (or set them up in a blueprint). If you hover over the number you will see the name of the task. I believe they default to FS but you can change it to SS, FF, SF as well. If you have a few SS appearing automatically it may have been because that is how you connected them in Gantt view?

• Finish to Start: Task B cannot begin until task A has been completed
• Start to Start: Task B cannot begin until task A begins
• Finish to Finish: Task B cannot be completed until task A is completed
• Start to Finish: Task B cannot be completed until task A begins

Danielle Wilson-- Ah, that makes sense now! I didn't immediately intuit this is what those letter designations meant. Thank you for your help!
