Time Estimates Rollup

With the Time Estimates Rollup turned on, you can make tasks display the sum of all time estimates from the parent task and any subtasks.

For example:

  • Task: 1 hour

  • Subtask: 1 hour

  • Another subtask: 30 minutes

The time shown on the task will be the sum: 2 hours 30 minutes.

Time Estimates Rollup works with Time Estimates per Assignee.

See Time Estimates Rollup on views

You can add Time Estimates as a column or field on the following views.

  • List view

  • Calendar view

  • Table view

  • Gantt view

When showing subtasks separately in List view, tasks will not include rolled-up time estimates.

In List and Table views, you can use Column Calculations to show the sum, average, or range of time estimates for your tasks. The calculation will include rolled-up time estimates.

Time Estimates are not rolled up in Team and Workload views because each task and individual subtasks are treated separately to calculate capacity.
