Project schedules are built from relationships between work items. These relationships — called dependencies — control the logical order in which work can happen. Raytio PPM supports the four standard dependency types along with lead and lag modifiers.
Raytio PPM stores all the data you need to plan and track a schedule — dates, work, duration, dependencies, and progress — as independent fields. These fields are user-managed: changing one value does not automatically recalculate the others. This page explains what PPM provides and how the pieces fit together.
The job system provides asynchronous task execution with scheduling, worker management, and notification delivery. Jobs are the primary mechanism for background processing — anything from score recalculation to data imports to webhook delivery.
Accurate project planning depends on distinguishing three related but independent concepts: work, duration, and elapsed time. Raytio PPM stores all three as independent fields, giving you the flexibility to model schedules precisely.
