Work assignments - percent to teams and development lines


Kevin Zemanek (2454825) | asked Feb 19 '09, 1:42 p.m.
We have a project with multiple teams and multiple development lines. I am seeing something odd that I need help with. For a given user (Fred) who is on a single team (baseball), when I open his user record his work assignments are equally portioned out over all of the development lines (ex: 7% each over 13 development lines). I think that this is because there is no specific linkage between a given team area and the development line it supports. My guess is that this is somehow configured through the Team Area process customization but I have not been able to figure out how to make this linkage from team to development line.

Suggestions?

Your % time allocation to particular teams and development lines is configured in the user editor. Try:
- select the repository node in the Artifact Navigator (in the eclipse UI)
- right click and choose "Open My User Editor"
- switch to the "Work Environment" tab
- check out the "Work Assignmencts" section at top right

Thanks - but I am aware of how to edit my % time allocation. I apparently asked my question poorly. Let me try again.

I am a member of 2 teams. In our RTC project there are roughly 13 development lines. My 2 teams contribute to only 2 of those development lines. However, when I look at the Work Assignments window for my user record all 13 development lines are shown under the each of the 2 teams I am on. And the default allocation of my time was roughly equally across all of the development lines. (I say "was" because I have corrected it)

I believe that this is because there is not a linkage between my teams and the development lines that we contribute to. If that is the case, how do I set that linkage? If it is not the case, what is wrong?

We have some people who are on several team, and with 13 development lines they end up (by default) with 2% of their time allocated to each development line. Going through and correcting that is a huge pain.

Thanks.

Yep - that's it. As we have a BUNCH of development lines this is a huge pain. It shows as resolved, planned for 2.0 M2. So does that mean I can plan to see this when RTC 2.0 is released?

Thanks.

Right. In the 2.0 release this is fixed. You can try the 2.0M2 build, it
will work there.
