Issue/Introduction
'ETC for Labor Resources', 'EAC for Labor Resources' and 'Actuals for Labor Resources' do not display correct values in Project List when the Default Display Unit for Work Effort is set to Days, they show the units set to Hours. This would also apply when these are used in a Time-Scaled Value field.
Steps to Reproduce
Go to Administration > Project Management > Settings, confirm that the "Default Display Unit for Work Effort" is set to Hours
Go to Home > Projects
Add the following attribute: ETC for Labor Resources (same steps to reproduce are valid for "EAC for Labor Resources" or "Actuals for Labor Resources")
Note values for ETC for Labor Resources
Go to Administration > Project Management > Settings, set "Default Display Unit for Work Effort" to Days
Go to Home > Projects, compare values with older values
Expected Results: Values for ETC for Labor Resources are shown in Days Actual Results: Values for ETC for Labor Resources are still shown in Hours
Environment
Release: Component: PPMSTU
Cause
The object list views were not designed to use the Project Management Work Effort Unit of Measure setting. There are other places within the application that can be configured to display these aggregated values at the project level for comparisons between projects.
Resolution
The following system portlets can be configured to display these values in hours, days or FTE: Home, Resource Planning, Organizational Demand, OBS Investment Aggregation > drill into the OBS Investment portlet (System Provider = Aggregation Investment List) Main Portlet Name = OBS Investment Aggregation Portlet ID = projmgr.OBSInvestmentAggregation Then drill down into the OBS to get the list of investments shared by the OBS.
