Which dependencies are problematic for my project portfolio?
Go to the business question Where are our project dependencies?
Click the local filter button > Focus Project and select the project you want to analyze. The drop-down list will show only the projects that have dependencies that match the other filter criteria such as Project Group, Status, etc.
In the Dependency Types field, select one or more of the following options:
Select Time to understand dependencies due to a timing issue. This means a project must be completed first before the next project can begin.
Select Architecture to understand dependencies between projects due to an architecture issue. This means an architecture element must first be provided by a project before the next project can begin.
Select Resource to understand dependencies between projects due to a resource issue. This means a project must first be completed so that the resource is freed up to begin the next project.
Click Update and click X to close the filter panel.
Any project dependency line that points to a project that has the same project status or a project status to the left requires attention. This indicates that a project cannot move forward until the project that it is dependent on is completed.
Navigate to the content area of a project to better understand it. Go to Monitoring > Project Dependency Map to understand the project dependencies in detail.
