Work item progress mode


Megan Doke (16163) | asked Mar 25 '09, 10:54 a.m.
Hi

I was wondering how to set the work item progress mode. Under the help information for this, it says that under

Project Configuration tab
Configuration Data ->Iteration Plans -> Work Item Progress Mode there should be a drop down to select Time Remaining or Time Spent.

For me, this just shows me the XML configuration, and it says it is unconfigured.

<configuration>
</configuration>

What is the information I need to place in here for the configuration data? I would like to progress mode to be Time Remaining.

Thanks in advance to anyone that can shed light on this!!

Hello,
what verison are you using? I use RTC 1.0.1.1 and the drop down it there with two values: Time Spent and Time Remaining.
Looking on the Tab Process Configuration Source for the corresponding xml I see

for Time Spent:
<configuration>
<estimationMode>
</configuration>

for Time Remining:
<configuration>
<estimationMode>
</configuration>

So maybe you can change your Process Configuration Source if you have earlier version of RTC 1.0.1.1 but if you have the same version as I we should look why you do not have the drop down.

Regards,
Elisabeth

I copied and past the xml but when submitting I see that not everything is there. Sorry. I try again. The correct xml is:

for Time Spent:

<configuration-data xmlns="http://com.ibm.team.apt/workItemProgressMode" id="com.ibm.team.apt.configuration.workItemProgressMode">
<estimationMode name="TimeSpent"/>
</configuration-data>

for Time Remaining:

<configuration-data xmlns="http://com.ibm.team.apt/workItemProgressMode" id="com.ibm.team.apt.configuration.workItemProgressMode">
<estimationMode name="TimeRemaining"/>
</configuration-data>

Thanks Elisabeth.

I'm not sure if it because I'm at version 1.0.1 instead of 1.0.1.1 or not. This is through the RTC plug-in for RAD 7.5. I'm looking around now to see if there is a software update for the plug-in.

It seems like it is actually disabled in my view. I pasted the code you gave me, and it wouldn't let me save it. I'm thinking it may be a version issue.

Thanks again!

We added the work item progress configuration in RTC 1.0.1. The code
pasted above should work for you. What was the error when saving?
