Unfortunately, while mathematically correct it might not be.<br>
<br>
You might have estimated 5 hours ----- y<span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">ou mean Time Estimated = 5 Hours</span> , put 4 hours into it<span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"> ( what is 'it' here ? ) </span>and come across<br>
some problems and it's now going to take you another 8. <span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">( Hence, I will change my estimate to 8 hours in the Time Estimated field) </span><br style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">
<br>
So, it depends on how you use the estimate field.<br>
<span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">My question revolves around if Time Estimate, Time Worked Upon and Time Left are synchrnonised with each other. What I wanted is : If I put a value in Time Estimated field and Time Workedupon Field then the Time Left should give me a difference of the two.</span><br>
