How to create a quick query in an RTC Plan that colorizes work items with timeSpent>estimate?


Todd Dunnavant (571017) | asked Mar 07 '17, 1:06 p.m.

It seems useful to highlight work items on a plan for which time spent is greater than the effective estimate for the work item.  Using RTC quick query syntax (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSYMRC_6.0.3/com.ibm.team.apt.doc/topics/r_quick_query_syntax.html), I can find and colorize a work item based on comparisons between timeSpent and a value, and between estimate and a value.  But, it appears that the very useful comparison between timeSpent and estimate isn't available to me. 

Am I (hopefully!) wrong????  CAN I somehow create a quick query that compares timeSpent to estimate?

looking at the doc this doesn't seem possible (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSYMRC_6.0.3/com.ibm.team.apt.doc/topics/r_quick_query_syntax.html)

If you are using the web client you could look at writing a little greasemonkey user script or using a similar tool
