* "task b" starts when "task a" is marked as DONE? @ 2015-07-02 17:55 Sharon Kimble 2015-07-03 2:02 ` Nick Dokos 0 siblings, 1 reply; 4+ messages in thread From: Sharon Kimble @ 2015-07-02 17:55 UTC (permalink / raw) To: org-mode [-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 564 bytes --] How can I have a task start when a primary task ends. I mean like this - --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- * TODO task a - fill the rubbish bag * TODO task b - put rubbish bag into the bin outside. --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- So in this case "task b" starts when "task a" is marked as DONE.

Are you talking about clocking, > about TODO states, about something else? When the TODO status changes to DONE, clocking can then autostart on task b.
