Hi Team,
One of our user is unable to add task dependencies in MS Project online app. User is having a Project Plan 3 license assigned to him. When ever the user is clicking on add dependency it is opening up a pop-up, but when user is clicking on it, dependency is not getting added.

Justin Way 0 Reputation points2023-08-07T13:55:05.8533333+00:00 Same issue for me. The workaround mentioned above doesn't work for me though - the option is greyed out in the right-click menu. TRegion UK
