- Violations are what happens in OmniPlan…when you program something that's just not possible.…It's a logical fallacy.…A command, for instance, for one task…to be dependent on another task…but the task that its dependent on…is also dependent on the first task.…That's called a circular dependency and it's a violation.…It is possible to program something…that is a logical fallacy,…what OmniPlan calls a violation.…
And there is a tool that helps you…clear out all those violations or resolve the violations…which is OmniPlan's preferred language.…I thought the best way to demonstrate this…would be to create a violation hands on…rather than set it up in advance…and then use resolve violations to fix it.…But I just thought it would be a little more understandable.…So a classic violation is a circular dependency.…Let's do this down in the content or writing group.…So it's totally logical to say that the drafting…has to be complete for the editing to proceed.…
So that's what this says here, right.…This task is drafting and once it's complete,…
