In Primavera 6, there are two types of activities based on relationships i.e Predecessors and Successors

Predecessor and successor 

A relationship defines how one activity relates to the start or finish of another activity or assignment.

Add relationships between activities to create a path through your program from the first activity to the last.

These relationships, which form the logic of the project network, are used along with the activity duration to determine schedule dates.

 

Predecessors:

An activity that must precede any other activity. A  predecessor activity controls the beginning or end date of its successors. An activity may have multiple predecessor, each of which may have a different relationship.
