    Projects - Ver.8.1.0 - Predecessors

    We are starting to put Projects aspects of the PM solution to work.  In trying to make things work in Projects ASAP - help in modifying the Activity2 process from Jon Hodge ; thank you Jon - once the schedule is late - that is latest start date is past - it then seems that the rules about predecessors is ignored.  What I see, for example, is that in a project if Activity # 6 is a successor to Activity # 4, once the latest start date for Activity #4 is past, when the scheduling Action is done, Activity #6 is activated even if Actitivy #4 is NOT complete. 

     

    Is there a way to keep that predecessor/successor scheduling rules in force even when the 'dates' involved in the critical path method try to force activation?  Ours is a project where "Activity #6" really can't get  started until #4 is done and having it activated early would cause team members to be notified before they can do anything about it.

     I know we are a couple releases behind and this may have been solved, but I can't seem to find anything on the topic in our install of Innovator or on the fora on the web-site.

    Thanks in advance.

    I guess modification of Project Activities Activation logic can help you.
    You should modify "Promote Project Activities" method (see code lines near q.loadAML("<Item type='Activity2' action='PromoteItem'><state>Active</state></Item>")) and "onSaveActivity2" method if need.
