Using multiple Timelines


Torbitz Csesca (7145) | asked Oct 12 '09, 2:57 p.m.
Assume we have a development organization with several Teams.
Each Team do Not work in time aligned iterations.
From previous post weve learned that in order to make this work we must have several Timelines. Each Team is defined in a Team Area belonging to its own Timeline.

What would be the major disadvantage with this configuration in term of other RTC concepts, such as, Planning, team work load, progress, report etc. Will there be any special disadvantages?
Regards
Torbitz

You should be fine with such a setup. It looks pretty much like the one
we use on Jazz.net to develop RTC. To make sure planning esp. progress
and load report work as expected, you should define your team
assignments. That mean you much of your time you work for a certain
team, e.g. 20% maintenance team, 70% development team, and 10%
exploration team. Do to so, open the user editor and select the work
environment tab.
