Description

We already have:


But we would need something additional for the following use case:

We have a tracker with a list of tasks. Each task has typical values:

  • Open/Pending/Closed (tracker status field)
  • Name (text)
  • Description (text area)
  • Assigned to (user)
  • Assigned by (user)
  • Priority (drop-down of 1 to 5)
  • Creation date (system generated field)
  • Last modification date


This is very similar to:
http://profiles.tikiwiki.org/Simple+Bug+Tracker

PluginTrackerStat could provide some stats on how many tasks are in each priority.


Now, imagine each task has 3 additional values:

  • Original estimate (do not change the value of this field)
  • Hours spent so far
  • Time remaining estimate.


Computed Tracker Field could calculate 2 additional values.

  • Current estimate would calculated by Time remaining estimate plus Hours spent so far
  • How on-target are we? would calculated by Current estimate divided by Original estimate times 100


So far, so good!

However, we would like to know:

  • The total number of all hours of work remaining.
  • The overall How on-target are we?


PluginTrackerList coudl be extented to have a report of the total number of hours, with certain filters.

Then, Tiki could be used to manage a Tiki Sheet:
http://profiles.tikiwiki.org/Time+Sheet

In the future, we could generate Graphics and Charts from this data, like we do in the spreadsheet
