RTC - roll up efforts of children to parent (balance effort)


V Niranjan (12545374) | asked Jul 27 '14, 9:56 p.m.
Hi

I have a requirement to  roll up efforts of children to parent (balance effort).

For e.g. I have a Parent work Item called TESTING-TASK with an estimate of 32 hrs
Two Child TASKS

TASK 1 - Estimate of 8 hrs
TASK 2 - Estimate of 24 hrs
Now when I close child TASK 1 the Parent task should show a balance of 24 hrs. Is there a way to do it or a script to achieve the above.

Regards
Niranjan V

If the tasks are planned for the same iteration, I think the planning component should give you that.

If you have a more special need, https://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2012/07/31/rtc-update-parent-duration-estimation-and-effort-participant/ describes ways to roll up across a parent child relationship.

Hi Ralph

The planning component does not give me the view which I need. I need the parent task to have the balance effort  if the child tasks are completed.
