How to make a task adjust its end date depending on another task? (Newbie)

Hello,

I have a project where I want to keep track of the Project Manager's work dates, as well as the Project dates, as tasks. In the below screenshot, I know that the "Rework Coding" task (row 18) will be the last real task to be completed. How can I make the "Project Manager" Subtask (row 3) and the "Eforward" task (row 1) automatically adjust their end dates to match the end date of the Rework Coding task? So if I change the Finish date of the Rework Coding task, the Finish date of the Project Manager Subtask and Eforward task will change along with it?

Use a hammock task.
