Plans in RTC 3.0 without esimated work items
I am working on a new 3.0 configuration, and when I create an Iteration Plan, it gives me a "Problems Detected" message when I have a Plan that includes a work item with no Estimate. We have certain workItemTypes that we do not have an "estimate" for. We do estimates for new function, but not for defects. Is there a way to not have it believe there is a problem to "plan for" a defect without an estimate?
Also, is this different in 3.0 from 2.0? We currently do the same thing in 2.0 and don't have problems. Susan |

Hi Susan,
there is no difference between 2.x and 3.x that I know of. What I noticed is that these warnings only occur for work item types not marked as top level work item types (aka execution types). If I mark defects as top level work item types the warning goes away. That might be the difference between your configurations. So if you define a defect work item type you could have that treated as a top level planning work item type and the calculation and roll up would be handled different.
