I am trying to create a high-level plan that contains tasks that must happen before Sprint starts. For example, Task 1 must end 3 weeks prior to the start of Task 2. Task 2 has a fixed date. However, should Task 2's date change (mgmt. decision), Task 1 must move and still end 3 weeks prior to the start of Task 2. Any suggestions on how to show this is MS Project 2010?

Welcome to Super User! What have you tried so far? Can you share examples or screenshots? – bertieb – 2018-03-29T21:10:52.167
All I've tried is to enter '1FS+3w' for the Task 2 dependency. But the problem is that Task 2 in this example is the real driver of the plan, meaning that if I add that for the dependency Task 2 will adjust to changes with Task 1. If I didn't have so many tasks then I could manually just try to remember that I need to calculate and change Task 1's date by the appropriate # of days. But since I have ~100 tasks it's not very easy to keep track of since each task may have a different differential (i.e. some tasks need to start 2d prior, or 2w prior or whatever). Make sense? – GaryS – 2018-04-02T23:21:09.930
