When looking at "Timeline" on a project it is counting weekends as days to complete. Is there a way to exclude weekends from a timeline in a specific project and not as a global setting?

Hi @Tricia ,

Project timeline pretty much displays issues as horizontal lines based on their start and due dates.

When talking about 'counting weekends as days to complete', what does this exactly refer to? Usually, when looking at effort estimation, you would use time tracking fields such as Original and Remaining estimates and these are impacted by global settings (Issues > Time tracking settings).
Dates, such as start and end/due date display expected or actual start and end date, but the difference between the two dates is not necessarily equal to Original estimate on the issue itself, as there are cases where someone can work on issues only half of a day or 4 hours instead of 8. This might be a 'deeper' resource management topic.

All native views - timeline or plans, will display these horizontal lines over the whole period from start to end, including weekends, despite the fact the system might be configured so that users work 40 hours a week (for example).

Regards,
Tom
