Why the Auto Percent Done modify all the issues on my WBS Gantt-Chart?

Question

When adjusting issue details (such as start/end dates, progress) in the WBS Gantt - Chart and then saving, unrelated issues can also be updated with spurious values in these fields. This is the correct and expected behavior?

Answer

These updates on unrelated issues it is a specification required to the Auto Calculate Percent Done option to work properly. An explanation is described below:

• The schedules of D and D-1 are different

• There is no dependency between A-1 and D

If the schedule of D is not automatically corrected when the user changes the schedule of A-1, the schedule of Root cannot be rescheduled correctly
