Gantt chart - Specified start & end date gets overridden on enabling dependency

Hi,

I have created a Gantt chart where each task have a predecessor as well as a start date and an end date. I am calculating the start and end dates based on certain criteria.
It works fine when I don't map the dependency property in task settings for the Gantt chart. But, when I provide the dependency field, the start date and end date which I have specified for the tasks gets ignored and the end date of previous task is set as start date for the current task.

Is it possible to display the dependency as well as have specific start date and end date for the tasks? If yes, it would be helpful if you guide me to do so.

Thanks

Hi Sanjay, 

Greetings from Syncfusion support. 

When predecessor is mapped, dates are validated based on the predecessor values. To disable the predecessor validation, we need to disable the property enablePredecessorValidation. Also in Gantt, we are validating the dates based on various properties such as dayWorkingTime, workWeek, includeWeekend, holidays. To show the date as given in the data source, we need to make 24 hours as working day by specifying the range as 0 to 24 and also we need to enable includeWeekend property to make the weekends also as working days. When duration field is mapped, end dates are calculated based on the start date and duration. To show the end date as same as the date given in the data source we should not map duration field. Please refer the below code snippet for this.

Hi Sanjay, 

 

In Gantt, predecessors render are calculated by task ID value and Task ID values should be whole numbers. Hence, make sure your data source value. 

Please let us know, if you need further assistance on this.

Hi Sanjay, 

 

We have prepared the sample and enabled predecessor validation during taskbar drag action by using  ‘isInPredecessorValidation’ property in taskbarEditing and taskbarEdited client-side events. Please find the code snippet below,

Query1 – Enabling Predecessor validation while resizing the taskbar

Query2 – Query about FS Dependency behavior 

Solution: In Gantt, When move the predecessor task based on the predecessor Type(FS) its successor tasks will validate but while move the successor task then its offset value will be update. The offset value is positive when its lead and it is negative when is lack.
