Disable time tracking information for imported issues from MS Project

Ralph Lebinger November 23, 2021

Hello,

we use WBS Gantt to import MS Project plans. When importing issues, the fields original estimate and remaining estimate are automatically populated. I assume this happens based on the duration which is specified in the plan.

Is it possible to configure WBS Gantt to not populate those fields? Estimates based on the duration are wrong in our case because the plan contains the duration during which a task has to be completed, not the estimate how long a task will take. We want to estimate each task individually after it has been imported.

Thanks in advance!

Hello, @Ralph Lebinger 

Thank you for bringing this behavior to our attention and creating this Community Question.

According to our Documentation, the fields Original Estimate and Remaining Estimate are populated using the fields Work and Remaining Work respectively.

In this case, it is not possible to disable the WBS Gantt-Chart fields to be populated with the MS Project ones due to this being a requirement for the MS Project Import feature to work properly.

We are looking forward to hearing more from you. If you need assistance with our plugins or have any other questions, please, contact us anytime at Ricksoft-Support.atlassian.net. I will be happy to help.

We wish you a great day!
