Re: [O] Time estimates time format?

[Johan Ekh]

Thank you,

I've changed to

#+PROPERTY: Effort_ALL 2d 1w 2w 3w 4w 2m
#+COLUMNS: %40ITEM(Task) %17Effort(Estimated Effort){:} %CLOCKSUM

but there is no mapping between days, weeks, months and hours. For example,
'2d' + '1w' is summed as '3:00'. How can I change this?

The best for me would be to have the summed effort in weeks.

Best regards,
Johan

You can certainly do that. Have a look at org-effort-durations. You
could for example define the effort as '2d', '4w' or '7m'.

You might be able to do something along this line. Have a look at the
doc string of org-properties-postprocess-alist where it gives you an
example on how to calculate the remaining time (clocked vs estimated).
