Entering Time for Tasks

Wise Package Studio Reference
To assign users to tasks in a project
1. Click the Projects tab or press Alt+P.
2. From Active Project, select a project that is associated with a process.
3. In the right pane, click the Project Management tab.
The tasks for the selected project appear.
4. Select one or more tasks to assign.
5. Click Assign User and select a user from the button menu.
Only the tasks assigned to the current user are enabled. Tasks assigned to other users
are visible but unavailable.
You can filter the projects so that only projects whose next task is assigned to you or
only projects that have any task assigned to you appear in Active Project. Options for
the project filter are set on the General Preferences dialog box.
See Setting General Preferences
You can run the Assignments by User report to see how many tasks are assigned to
each user.
See Workbench Reports
Enterprise Management Server only.
On the Project Management tab, you can enter the time spent on tasks. This provides
data for determining the difference between estimated and actual time spent on project
tasks. Having historical data will help improve the accuracy of estimates for future
repackaging projects. You can view this information in the Project Variance report.
See Workbench Reports
Security Setup determines whether you have access to the Project Management tab.
To enter time for a task
1. Click the Projects tab or press Alt+P.
2. From Active Project, select a project that is associated with a process.
3. In the right pane, click the Project Management tab.
The tasks for the selected project appear.
4. Double-click a task.
The Task Details dialog box appears.
5. In Actual Hours, enter the time spent on this task. Up to two decimal places are
allowed.
Don't use the value from the Measured Hours column that gets recorded
automatically. This represents only the time it takes to run the tool for a task, but a
task might involve activities in addition to running the tool. Example: Suppose you
need to test the package's launch conditions on different operating systems. The
Metrics tab will record the amount of time the Test Expert tool runs, but it will not
record the time you spend reimaging the test machines.
