Task Assignment and Estimation

The following should be considered and noted when planning or tracking Task estimates, Actual Hours worked, and individual User Capacity:

• Each User should enter their Project or Sprint capacity. See Managing User Capacity.
• When assigning an Owner to a Task, a User's Total and Remaining hours are indicated in the list.

  

• To see these values, the following is required:
  1. The Project must be marked Private.
  2. The Story must be in a Sprint.
  3. They are only available in the TEAM ROOM and Story Editor.
• If you edit the Task Estimate field, the capacities are calculated and updated for the current Owner if there are no work records, otherwise it will calculate based on the remaining work (To Do).
• If you change a User, it will update both the old and new User to reflect the newly added (for the new user) and removed (for the old user) estimated hours of work remaining on a task.
