    Let $P$ be a finite graded poset of rank $n$. In this paper, the authors study the structure of the edges in the Hasse diagram of $P$. For any graded poset $P$, a new graded poset $\mathcal{E}(P)$ is defined whose elements are the edges in the Hasse diagram of $P$. It is shown that if $P$ is self-dual, then so is $\mathcal{E}(P)$. The following results are proved. Proposition. The graded poset $\mathcal{H}(B_n)$ is isomorphic to $n$ disjoint copies of $B_{n - 1}$. Theorem. If a group action of $G$ on $B_n$ is common cover transitive, then $\mathcal{E}(B_n/G)$ is Peck. \par Some common cover transitive actions on a graded poset are given. Some infinite families of common cover transitive actions are given and it is shown that the common cover transitive actions are closed under direct and semidirect products. \par Furthermore, some open problems are given.
