Description
For product planning and project management, I propose in addition to Feature #1953
- make unit of estimated time configurable (is a float anyway)
- support time unit days in addition to hours (maybe even weeks and at least for the Feature tracker)
- make this configurable differently for Feature/Support/Bug trackers.
- internally the unit could stay hour (estimated, spent) and
- a day should equal 8 hours (or configurable amount).

Although I think it should be per issue choice (replace the "Hours" label with a dropdown list).

Our projects have small tasks, so in the dropdown menu a choice must be the "*minutes*".

+1 It would be great if redmine could detect and adjust the display format based on this.
Example:
value | display |
---|---|
24.0 hours | 3.0 days |
0.5 hours | 30 minutes |
40.0 hours | 1 week |
It would also be nice to have mixed formats.
Example:
value | display |
---|---|
48.0 hours | 1 week 1 day |
4.5 hours | 4 hours 30 minutes |

Up !
Use days/weeks is definitely a need for some projects containing hard or not direct steps.
It would be so handfull to set a start date and a estimated time so that the end date is calculated by itself and then appear in gant etc.
This is one of the basic limitation that is mainly reported by managers in my company.
This need has 11 years, so sad thing have not changed :(
