Print report show predecessors in Gantt chart

When working in Primavera P6, the Relationship tab is the standard way to view the predecessors of an activity.

However, identifying those activities in the schedule can be challenging. Wouldn’t it be easier if we could see them directly in the Gantt chart? Here’s how you can do it:

Step 1: Collapse All

Go to View → Collapse All to minimize the WBS structure. This makes navigation easier.


Step 2: Navigate to Predecessors

Locate the activity whose predecessors you want to display.
In the Relationships tab, select a predecessor and click GoTo.

When you click Go To, Primavera will jump to that predecessor and automatically expand its WBS.
Repeat this process for each predecessor.

Step 3: Hide Unnecessary Bars

To keep the Gantt chart clean and focused, hide all other unnecessary bars.
You can follow the detailed guide here:

Now you have a Gantt chart that clearly displays all predecessors for the selected activity. This visual approach makes it much easier to understand the relationships in your schedule.
