      I understand that Summary Task must not have any links. but the scenario is as follows:

       

      Can I have the summary task in this file as an external predecessor to a task in another file to capture the start and end dates? Will this create any issues?

      Thanks

      I would link with task 3 since all your tasks are waterfall..

      To stay with best practices for scheduling, I agree. You need to connect to a task and since Task 3 is the last in your series, that would be the one to use. In other situations, you can usually create a task that serves just this purpose as well.
