Can a deliverable be linked to more than one task? If yes, how?

It can be linked to only one task in the project that produces the
deliverable, however it can be linked to multiple tasks as a "soft"
predecessor in multiple projects.

I was trying to address the following:
We have a task that actually produces the deliverable. Then we have a
client activity/task where that same deliverable is the input. Can it be a
soft-predecessor in the same project?

No, but you can set a dependency on the task that produces it, not the
deliverable.

Hi Gary,
What do you mean "soft" dependency? How are you physically establishing a
soft dependency?

When you link to a deliverable, it doesn't automatically push the successor
date the way a task-to-task link does. Thus the terms hard versus soft.
