4 Cases of out of sequence

1-?????The first case occur when the originally logic relationship is FS one, but after Update the schedule we found that the activities can work concurrently with lag, the update status of the predecessor activity is in progress and the successor activity is in progress also now the original relationship change to be SS and FF.

2-?????The second case occurs when the originally logic relationship is FS or SS, but after update the schedule we found that the successor activity in progress and the predecessor activity still not started, now the original relationship must changes to FF.

3-?????The third case occurs when originally relationship FS or FF, but after update the schedule we found that predecessor activity in progress and the successor activity is completed, now the relationship must change to SS.

4-?????The fourth case occurs when originally relationship is FS, SS or even FF, but after update the schedule we found that logic is not valid and the successor activity is completed while the predecessor is not started, the only solution is to break the relation manually.
