How do I enter an estimate for a task that may only take me a few hours to complete?In LiquidPlanner we use days as the basic unit. If you think it will take you half a day, use 0.5 days. When entering small task, I ask myself “how many of these could I do in a day?” If it’s something that should take a quarter of my day, I’ll give it a ranged estimate of something like .2 to .4 days. The smallest unit you can use is .01 days, which is about five minutes. |

I guess when you mention hours, you consider only working hours right? so how many is that? 8, 10, 12 per day? i am trying to figure out wheter 0.5d = 12h or not. |

Right now we treat a day as 8 hours. However, we’re aware that several of our customers would like units other than days. We’re going to be building this functionality in a future release. Hopefully you can work with days until then. Thanks, |
