How are Expected Work Hours calculated in iteration?
Web client->Plan Details->Iteration click on 'Progress', hover over colored bar. How is "Expected Work Hours" calculated? This is from a 3 week iteration This is what RTC reports: Work hours done: 627.25 of 1333.25 planned Expected work hours: 756.75 (behind by 129.5 hours) I checked this by: total planned / number of weeks = expected per week (444) plus 3 days (today is EOD Wed) which adds 266 more to expected for total 710. Expected work hours above shows 756.75, not equal to 710 What am I missing here? |

Expected hours = (Sum estimates of all work items) * (Available hours from Start date of plan till now/ Available hours from Start date to End Date of the plan)
The available hours between 2 dates is calculated based on the allocation, work hours and absences of all the users part of the plan. |

Similar post: Progress bar in iteration planning with explanations on how this is calculated Thanks for responding, but the answer you point to does not answer the question. It says: projection= work_time_DONE/work_time_REMAIN - real_time_DONE / real_time_REMAIN So if you plug the numbers in that I provided in my original post, it comes to be -.25. And that's if I guessed correctly about what "real time" means. Also why is it that work time done and real time done is not the same value? This makes no sense to me ... |

What I meant to say above is: why is it that <expected> and real time done is not the same value? So "Expected Work Hours" should be equal to real time passed since iteration started, but it's not. Please shed some light on this please. |
