<ul></ul><p>Typically estimation does not match reality. Someone can estimate a task to take 5hours and is done within 15minutes. Other times after 10hours it still isn't half way complete.</p>
<p>If this were a feature, I would expect to have it turned off on my Redmine instances.</p>
<p>Kind regards</p>

<ul></ul><p>We have the same request in <a class="issue tracker-2 status-1 priority-4 priority-default" title="Feature: Calculating issue done ratio based on "Estimated Time" and "Spent Time" - selectable by project (... (New)" href="https://www.redmine.org/issues/11999">#11999</a>. See our description for the reason why this makes sense anyway. I totally understand Adams' argument. Although in some projects it totally makes sense to have the total issue done ration being calculated based on the spent time value. If <strong>Spent Time</strong> is greater than <strong>Estimated Time</strong> and the option to calculate the done ratio based upon these 2 values is turned on, the done ratio for a task should simply be set to 100%.</p>
<p>Perhaps, when using the option to calculate the done ratio based upon Estimated Time/Spent Time is enabled, the field <strong>Estimated Time</strong> should be renamed to <strong>Time Required</strong> or <strong>Lead Time</strong>. Then it again makes sense.</p>
<p>This is useful for projects where the customer pays for a certain amount of hours (in advance) and has the ability to check the status on the issue he payed for. Thus if <strong>Spent Time</strong> exceeeds <strong>Estimated Time</strong> the bar in the issue overview should become red or something to visualize that an issue is over the "limit".</p> Redmine - Feature #7545: Calculate the issue done ratio from estimated and spent timehttps://www.redmine.org/issues/7545?journal_id=431762012-12-03T13:46:52ZSamuel GABILLARD

<p>We can add another field with the estimated remaining time and use it to calculate a more realistic done ratio. Something like this:</p>
<p>1) Starting:<br />Estimated Time: 8 h<br />Spent Time: 0 h<br />Remaining Time: 8 h<br />% done: 0 %</p>
<p>2) Halfway:<br />Estimated Time: 8 h<br />Spent Time: 4 h<br />Remaining Time: 4 h<br />% done: 50 %</p>
<p>3) Some delay:<br />Estimated Time: 8 h<br />Spent Time: 8 h<br />Remaining Time: 4 h<br />% done: 50 %<br />And since Spent Time + Remaining Time > Estimated Time, we have a delay, and then we should get the red bar to signal it. :D</p> Redmine - Feature #7545: Calculate the issue done ratio from estimated and spent timehttps://www.redmine.org/issues/7545?journal_id=445592013-01-16T11:58:28ZTerence Mill
