Finish-to-Finish constraint not allowing representation of early start.

That's better, or at least it now makes more sense.

As set up the predecessors for 'Task A' effectively determine when 'Task A' can start. The driving dependency is the finish-to-finish with 'Task D'. A finish-to-finish dependency means that 'Task A' CANNOT be completed until, in this case, 'Task D' is complete. There is no conflict with the finish-to-start relationship with 'Task B' since that dependency means that 'Task A' cannot start until 'Task B' is complete. It does NOT mean that 'Task A' will start immediately after 'Task B' finishes.

I note that tasks 'C' and 'D' have start-no-earlier than constraints but the start of 'Task B' is apparently defined by the Project Start date. If there is some flexibility in when 'Task B' starts then this dependency configuration will get what you want.

If that doesn't work in your situation, then the only way to have 'Task A' start immediately after 'Task B' finishes is to remove the finish-to-finish relationships.
