Task dependencies

Task dependencies allow you to define relationships between tasks, ensuring that certain tasks are completed before others can begin. This helps maintain a logical workflow and prevents team members from starting work that relies on incomplete tasks.

Note

Worklenz currently only supports the Blocked by dependency type. Additional dependency types will be released in future updates.

How to set up a task dependency

1. Open the task drawer by clicking on a task.
2. Scroll down to the Dependencies section.
3. Click + Add new dependency and select the task that blocks the current task.
4. The Blocked by dependency format will be set by default.

Once configured, the current task will be marked as blocked until the selected dependency task is completed.
