Help me understand Time Tracking Report (Accuracy)

Sebastian Somi March 29, 2023

Hi, 

I understand that for the top column the accuracy of -1d3h is result of 1d estimate - 2d 3h time spent.

 

What is the logic behind the bottom red rectangle?

 

Because - 5h does not equal 4h original estimate - 6h time spent.

Hi Sebastian,

It takes into account the estimate of the time remaining too.

In this case, you have:

  • Original estimate: 4h
  • Time remaining: 3h
  • Time spent: 6h

It's a bit convoluted, but think of it as

We've done 6 hours on it, we've got 3 remaining, so the estimate-to-complete is now 9 hours. 

We originally estimated 4 hours, so 9-4 = an underestimate of 5 hours.
