Linking Project Phases

Hello everyone,

We are curious if there is any method to link the two WBS phase of the Project Entry.
In other words,
Let’s say there are two phases in one project i.e. design and manufacturing.
So what we want is the manufacturing phase should only start when all the jobs of designing phase has been completed.

Is there a way or anyone could suggest a solution to this problem?

Thank You

I would take a look at the ProjPhase.PhaseStatus and the ProjPhase.SortSeq fields and see if you come up with an BPM on the Project.Update method. The SortSeq should be in a default order.

The other more complicated solution may be to look at the related jobs to the phases and confirm if the jobs are complete.

I hope that helps.

I’m not sure about it. Because the even if we apply the condition for ProjPhase.PhaseStatus and the ProjPhase.SortSeq, what type of code will help me to verify that all the jobs of that sequence has been completed.
Next problem would be, if they’re not completed then how can I stop the release or scheduling of the next phase job?
