This section describes how to link a target with other targets to see the entire process of achieving the planned goals.
You can link targets in two Planner entities:

  • Gantt chart

  • Create/Full View (Target’s sidebar)

  2. Drop the connector on the required target. The Add Connection sidebar opens.
