Normalization of Estimate, Applied, and Correction fields

0
Rick Henriksen (1●1●1) | asked Oct 29 '08, 12:23 p.m.
Is there any way to force the time unit fields such as estimate, Applied, and Correction to normalize any data entered to a standard (single) unit such as hours? For example, if I enter an estimate for a work item of 50 hours and save that work item, Jazz will display the field back to me as "1 week 10 hours". If I export this to a spreadsheet, I can't perform a summation on that field as it has to be parsed (very tricky) first.

The work item export wizard allows you to select the output format. The
'Show'-column lets you chose between 'Label' and 'Internal Value'. The
latter will be a value in milliseconds.
