Read Time: 1 minute ?
We often talk about time tracking and our Gantt charts ability to measure project duration, but often the ability to allocate hours goes unnoticed. Ever wondered about the difference between Allocated (Project) and Allocated (Task) in your project details? Or what about why they are located next to total time tracked? Its all about keeping tabs on progress!
Allocated (Project): how many hours you allotted for the project at its creation.
Allocated (Task): the cumulation of the hours you gave each task.
Tracked: the total time tracked within your project
Measure A(P) against A(T) to see if your initial expectation of the project’s length matches up with the more realistic task-by-task time allotment. Perhaps its time to reconsider your initial assumptions? Then measuring the final, realistic time allocations against the time tracked will give you an indication of progress.
