If projects depend on each other, they don't simply follow-up one after the other. Splitvice uses milestones to add interdependencies on the detail level you want.
To do so:
- define a milestone as visible to other projects
- define in the second project you want to use that milestone
- In your Gantt chart, the external milestone becomes visible at the top of the Gantt chart and you can set dependencies just like on internal milestones
