Is there any way to link a task in Project A to a Project B?

I have tasks in a master project (project A) that the assignee starts their own project for (project B). I want the % complete of the task in Project A to update as the overall progress of Project B progresses. Is this possible?

Hi Pamela, this sounds very similar to cross-project predecessors... if I'm understanding your question correctly that is. Check out this article and come back if it's not doing what you're asking.

Hei Pamela @Pamela Miller‚ ,

This is not possible automatically, upto my knowledge. But we have to update progress of task in Projects B to which the task in Project A is connected. After connecting projects using Cross Project Predecessors, it does not update the planned start date & planned completion date. It only holds for one date either planned start or planned completion date. This type function is very much required in Workfront.
