Set Remaining and Completed during the Estimate Session #86

Open RedGrnBluCat opened 2 years ago

RedGrnBluCat commented 2 years ago

Will you please add an enhancement to auto-populate the values for Remaining and Completed when the Original Estimate is set?

Current operation is once the estimate is decided the Original Estimate value is set; Remaining and Completed remain empty/unset. Afterwards, one must open & save every Task in the story again to set the hours for Remaining and Completed.

It makes sense that Remaining should initially be set equal to Original Estimate at the time of estimating it. It also makes sense Completed is set to 0, because typically no work has been completed yet. The convenience of initially setting Completed to 0 is this field displays on the Tasks' cards when viewing the Taskboard in Sprints, which allows one to update that field without opening & saving the task.

Is there a recommended workaround to achieve this?

This seems like it should be low hanging fruit
