Mode

Description

Manual

This mode allows the user to manually enter the Duration, Units, and Effort values.

Effort adjusts

This mode automatically calculates the value of the Effort column using the Duration value * Units value formula.
Manual editing of the Effort column will be disabled.

Example

  • Duration = 8 hours

  • Units = 50%

→ Effort = 8 hours * 50% = 4 hours

Duration adjusts

This mode automatically calculates the value of the Duration column using the Effort value / Units value formula.
Manual editing of the Duration column will be disabled.

The Finish column is also disabled for manual editing, since the values of Start and Duration automatically determine the value of Finish.

Example

  • Effort = 16 hours

  • Units = 25%

→ Duration = 16 hours / 25% = 64 hours

Units adjusts

This mode automatically calculates the value of the Units column using the Effort value / Duration value formula.
Manual editing of the Units column will be disabled.

Example

  • Effort = 8 hours

  • Duration = 32 hours

→ Units = 8 hours / 32 hours = 25%

The default value for this column can be changed in the Gantt settings.
