Items related with a Break Down relationship receive special handling in tracking views. Downstream items will appear in both the Tracking tab and the Tracking Gantt as if they were hierarchically children of the upstream related items. All statuses will also roll up. There is some logical overlap between Dependent and Break down relationships but in general Dependent relationships influence items while Break down items represent the same thing as the From item(s) but on lower, more detailed level.
