Hi List,
I am using Taskjuggler embedded in a python environment. This works
nicely (THANK YOU ALL!). I will make the code to use taskjuggler
available when it is stable enough, it will take some time.....
However, I have a suggestion for extra functionality that would make my
life a lot easier.
In a product that I have developed, I am planning activities of people
that are stretched over a number of months (sometimes as much as a
year). I am interested in the total effort that people will have to put
in those activities, but also in some tasks that MUST be finished by a
certain date.
So, we have tasks that run a long time, and take something like 4 hours
per week. (but I can have many of those), and other tasks that require a
greater effort, run shorter, but MUST be finished before a certain
deadline.
Therefore, it would be very nice if it could be possible to enter an
effort PER time-unit that a resource is supposed to use for that task.
As a result, the available time that can be used freely to plan in is
reduced because of these activitities.So conflicts with the tasks that
have a deadline show up as soon as they are entered!
A possible solution could be to add a policy (something like 'smooth',
extend effort with an extra parameter time-unit, and allow effort
together with startdate/enddate (and off course make it all work :-)
Cheers.
