Change taskboard view to use effort remaining
In the "Developer Taskboard" I can easily update work items with the amount of time I have spent on a work item. There is a small clock icon that has a drop down. I notice that when I select a value (say "4 hours") the estimated time remaining for that tasks is automatically reduced by 4 hours.
Is there anyway to revert the task board so that time drop down represents not time spent working on a task, but estimated effort remaining to complete the task? Being able to edit the outstanding effort of work item directly in the task board (without opening up the inline editor) is very helpful from a clickability perspective. |

You can switch to time remaining in the process configuration for the project. However, the time remaining is calculated and discussions here indicate the experience is less intuitive than using time spent.
There are work items to implement better support in 3.0 e.g. http://jazz.net/jazz/web/projects/Rational%20Team%20Concert#action=com.ibm.team.workitem.viewWorkItem&id=87853 Ralph In the "Developer Taskboard" I can easily update work items with the amount of time I have spent on a work item.
