support custom attribute calculate in plan editor?
One RTC customer use Excel to manage his project before, now he start to use RTC, in Excel he calculates sum of many columns to get a whole status of many aspects of his project, for example:
Estimate time = 20 day
Test time = 20 day
Plan time = 5 day
.....
So customer has created some custom attributes(integer type) for his work item, but in RTC plan editor, it only supports calculate for "Estimate" and "Story point" attributes to refect the status of a project in default, how to calculate the sum of custom attributes in plan editor? or RTC doesn't support it yet?
I have figured out two possible solutions:
1. In the work item view, support simple calculate function when user select a button of menu
2. Create a birt report
Or RTC plan editor support more customization in the future?
Estimate time = 20 day
Test time = 20 day
Plan time = 5 day
.....

There will be more customization in this area in the future (not specific
to the plan editor): Calculated Attributes.
You will be able to define a new integer attribute and to specify code
that calculates the value of this attribute from other attributes.
