Scheduling Tools

Sorry, I'm currently not able to support or further develop this hack.

Attention! Alpha stage! - Slowly approaching Beta...

Description

A simple scheduling algorithm for tickets.

If each ticket is assigned an effort, they can be scheduled based on their owner and priority and milestone.

Then a Gantt chart can be generated. It displays all scheduled ticketds as usual together with their milestones. The latter ones are display in black if ok or in red, if a ticket in the milestone reaches past the milestones due date.

Scheduling is influenced by

• Team availability: Who is available how many hours a days? - Availabilities can be maintained under Admin.
• Blocking tickets (future)

A personal time table displays the next tickets a developer should work at.

Team avalabilities can be maintained

Works with the EstimationToolsPlugin.
