Automation Action - Change Task Effort
Hello,
I think it would be very useful to have the ability to automate task effort based on other custom fields. For example, we are developing complexity scores, applying them to projects to help with capacity planning. When selecting a complexity score for a project, I would like the ability for the booked effort of the project and the associated tasks' effort to be filled-in with agreed upon hours.
Example: If project has complexity level 3, then task 1 will take 1h of effort. If project has complexity level of 8, then task 1 will take 3h of effort.
The ability to automate effort and book effort would enhance Wrike's already robust system for tracking and predicting capacity.
Hi Michael Morrison, thank you for creating this post! I've passed your feedback on to our dedicated team 👍
I'm doing something similar to Michael. Currently, I have multiple custom item types for each LOE category, which is difficult to manage. I'd like to be able to select the LOE category from a custom field and have it auto-populate the Effort field. Is this something that's being developed?
Hello!
This would also be very beneficial to us. For our content tasks the effort is different based on the Writer. I would like to set an automation that is based on the Assignee since I know how much time they spend on their individual assignment types.
