A worked example
Each task has a start and a finish. They are drawn as bars on a weekly axis, with this table beside the chart.
| Task | Start | Finish | Weeks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Agree scope | Week 1 | Week 1 | 1 |
| Prepare the site | Week 2 | Week 4 | 3 |
| Move stock | Week 5 | Week 6 | 2 |
A finish date before the start date is rejected. Overlapping bars do not mean one task depends on another; use Critical path for that.
