Are there other people out there who agree with me that the timesheets
are a royal pain?
The team members don't want to do it in the first place.
Second, this whole thing about tracking hours is way too complicated.
Even when you use % complete, you still have to deal with HOURS
remaining. Besides, is it hours remaining as of the date they enter
their progress or some other point in time?
Third, you can't be certain the update will actually work correctly
each time. Just seems like a high-maintenance deal overall. Over a
period of several months, we had to unplug time reporting because it
was just too hard to keep up-to-date and current.
Any one out there have a recommended method that takes the "bite" out
of using timesheets for progress reporting? Perhaps our problem is we
have anywhere from 2-3 to 10 people assigned to tasks and all were
reporting.
Is there a special setting I need to use for the plan within the
Options | Calculation section that will enable more accurate updates
and/or the ability to use % complete method?
Thanks,
