Question on Work Breakdown View for plans
In the work breakdown view for plans there is a bar off to the right which shows the "work load report". I'm using the WEB UI. Where does this report get the "available time"?
In my case, there is 1 week left in the iteration, but the bar shows
total hours available: 9
total hours estimated: 34
overbooked by 25 hours
If we go by the timeline, there should be 40 hours available. I did check the user and the duration and end time for working hours looks ok and there are no scheduled absences.

Did you verify that the user is assigned to be working 100% in this team
area?

The assignment was messed up. thx! But now I have him set to 50% and I expected his available time would be 40 hours since we have a 2 week iteration. It shows as 22.75 hours. I must be missing something else. Any ideas?
Probably need more info than is easily provided in a forum discussion.
I'd suggest working directly with IBM support on this.
If you want to investigate yourself, the kinds of things I would do is
try bumping down the assignment of one user down to 50%, and see what
the effect is on the hours available. Then restore the users assignment
to 100%, and modify the "end time" of the iteration, both forward and
backward, and see the effect on the available time. If that doesn't
give you enough of a clue, you can also add another user to the team
area, and see how that affects the available time (and then play with
the assignment of that other user).
