Hello
I have an activity with 5 days workload.
I use planning mode "regular in days". I expect to see only 1 in the planning per day.
Note : the resource has a FTE = 1
But 0.1 work appear in the planning, it seems that the last days is splitted in pieces :
There is no other part-day activity on the same date in the planning that would explain that this day must be splitted
This also happens when using "regular in half days" or "regular in quarter days".
I can see that on several of my projects, and always have the issue on the last planned day that is splitted in pieces.
What can be the cause of this behaviour ? Is there a workaround ?
I send to you a part of the user guide that will be available in version 5.2.3.
I hope this is can help you.
Thanks for this helpful doc
That is what I understood, I should have :
But instead the last day is splitted in 0.1 or 0.2 workloads like in my screenshot on previous post.
It does not happen all the time. But on some projects I have this behavior and do not understand why.
Is there something I can check ? Something that would explain that ?
Note : we are using version 5.1.5
For the regular planning mode, you must set the validated duration (start and end dates).
Second, you define the planned work (assigned work).
In your case, you should use the planning mode "Regular in full days".
Planning calculator will distribute your 8 days (planned work) on 63 days (duration).
It look like the example for "Regular in full days".
So, if you have work done on the task. The task isn't planned again.
I tried your case on the test site.
So, I can change the planning mode and work distribution change too.
Have you recalculate the planning?
Yes I have recalculated the planning.
Seems weird to me, if I do a test on a newly created activity, it works well. But the issue appears on some projects, there must be something causing this, but I cannot see what exactly.
Me too, I don't know why. Maybe a bug. 🙁
Babynus help !
Hi,
Very weird indeed.
I coumd not reproduce on first tests.
I checked code for unexpected assisnments (for instance if ($profile="REGUL") instead of if ($profile=="REGUL"), but found none.
So issue must be linked to scoecific use case.
Could you try and reproduce in the demo ?
(ticket #1971 recorded for analysis)
Reproduced on demo :
Project : RegularFullDays
Resource : albert
Assigned 3 days "regular in full days" in february 2016
-> The issue appears when there is some real work already entered between the start and end date of the activity
(here I entered 1 day of administrative work on the 16 february)
Thanks for example (and hint about already entered real work).
Could reproduce.
An fix.
Fix will be deployed on V5.2.3.
Great 🙂 Thanks
I tested 5.2.3 this morning.
The issue is fixed, it works great, thanks 🙂
