...
So, the allocation for Arnold (Hours (Est)) the Planned Hours will be divided across the planned dates for the task according to availability and allocation (50%) which is as follows:
11th | 12th | 13th |
|---|---|---|
| 4 | 4 | 4 |
Arnold fills time-entry of 4 hours for 11th. Today is 12th, 12 PM. This is reflected on 11th (past) for that task row. The remaining effort for the task is now (12 - 4) = 8 hours, which will be spread over today and future duration of the task proportional to Arnold's availability.
...
So, for Arnold, remaining availability (free hours) for the dates is as follows:
11th (past) | 12th (present) | 13th (future) |
|---|---|---|
| 4 (8-4 approved hours) | 2.7 (8-5.3) | 5.3 (8-2.7) |

If a task is completed before schedule (i.e. %Complete = 100%) then the remaining work (if any) will not be spread over the future duration of the task. |
