(beta?) Using Formal Process Planning
We are having a hard time figuring out how to use all the features of the formal process planning. Is there documentation out there somewhere?
We are able to set dates on the iterations, view the gantt chart, and set the constraint date of work items. However we can find no way to get dates in the "Planned Start Date" and "Planned End Date". Additionally, the plan views "Work Breakdown & Planned Schedule" and "Work Breakdown & Proposed Schedule" do not show any gantt chart information.
We are currently testing RTC 3.0M8.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi,
I had similar issues and am unfortunately not aware of better documentation.
There are some issues with the traditional planning. WRT to the planned start and end dates you could try to set them in the work item. I remember I was able to set them once.
the Gantt chart is only displayed if a certain attribute is in the list of displayed columns. I can't look it up right now. Please check for candidates in the plan mode that displays the chart.
