"time remaining exceeds estimate" - invalid warnin


Kelley Heckert (641) | asked Dec 01 '09, 11:20 a.m.
Why does the error "time remaining exceeds estimate" appear when the time remaining is 2 hours and the time estimated is 4 hours? It gives the yellow warning/yeild sign in the Iteration - Work Breakdown view.

Is this a bug or am I missing something?

Thanks,
Kelley

That looks like a bug. As the time remaining is a synthetic value which
is derived from the time spent value, we have to make sure that it's
never larger than the estimate. However, in your case it looks like
everything is OK.

Can you pls file a defect with the steps we have to undertake to
reproduce this.
