Linking Predecessors by Choosing Tasks

This was something that I could do in Workamajig but I don't believe you can in Workfront. I want to select multiple tasks and 'link' them together so it automatically assigns the predecessors to new tasks based on the workflow. Is this a functionality the Workfront has that I'm missing?

No. I don't have Workamajig, but assuming you want to select 10 tasks and then click one button to automatically assign predecessors between them, or to new tasks following them, this is not how Workfront works. You'll need to manually assign them on a task by task basis.

Yes, is it something that might be looked into? Thanks!

Probably the quickest way for it to be "looked into" is -- I'm going to ask that you go to this link and click on the "share an idea" blue button.
