"no work time left" & "Expected Work Hour


Mike Shkolnik (9809161143) | asked Aug 24 '11, 8:46 p.m.
We are having a strange problem with Load and Progress bars in Planned Time and Developers Taskboard views in sprint plans in RTC.

1. Everything works fine on the main timeline.
2. In any other timeline the Load and Progress bars don't work - Load shows as 0 for each user with "no work time left" and progress shows the correct number of hours but shows "Expected Work Hours: 0", so if 15 hours of progress were made then it shows "+15".
3. If I open up a user from the Planned Time view BUT DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING, then click back to the Plan tab, suddenly the load bar for that person (but not others) corrects itself!
4. If I open up a user from the Developers Taskboard view and then click back to the Plan tab and click refresh, that user (but not others) suddenly displays the correct progress data!
5. This is cumulative, so I could correct all the bars by opening each user one at a time.
6. If I close the sprint plan tab and open it again, all progress and load bars that had corrected themselves by opening the users are reset back to the wrong thing.

This is odd behavior at best and likely a bug, though surprisingly I see no mention of it on the web, so perhaps I am just missing a timeline setting somewhere?

I have checked the following:

1. The team is set to the proper timeline.
2. The items in the plan are properly filed against the category associated with the proper team.
3. The plan is owned by the proper team.
4. The users are on the proper team and 100% allocated to it.
5. Tasks are executable items (not top level).
6. The correct sprint is marked as current, has an end date, and has time remaining.
7. Each other timeline has a sprint marked as current.
8. The problem appears to occur for plans on any timeline that is not the project timeline.
9. Clicked Refresh many times in both views.
10. The web UI shows the same wrong data (though you can't click the user to open it in the web UI).

Any ideas?

That is very odd.


Indeed, it is the strangest glitch I've come upon thus far.

Mike,

you might want to consider to create a work item to have other people look into it.

Agreed, if we were on ifix7. At this point we're too far behind to muddy the system with bugs that may no longer exist. Once we're on ifix7 I will try to reproduce it.

I verified this in ifix 8 and posted a defect:
