Time Span property

Specifies the maximum amount of time that should be allowed for the completion of the activity associated with this AgileShape before it is considered overdue.

Business Time

Default value: False

Determines whether the time span represents normal time, or business hours only.

This property can be set to the following specific values:

  • True - When set to this value, the time span represents a span of business hours only. E.g. 5 Days of business time would normally be equivalent to 7 Days of normal time, and 8 hours of business time would normally be equivalent to 24 hours of normal time

  • False - When set to this value, the time span represents a normal (absolute) time span, and is unaffected by any business time configuration settings

Length

The number of Time Units represented by the Time Span

A variable can be used here that is either an integer or a datetime.

NOTE: Use a variable containing a datetime to set the Due Date column in Activities to a specific value dynamically. In such a case, the properties Business Time and Time Unit have no effect.

Time Unit

The type of time unit represented by the time span. This property can be set to the following specific values:

  • Second
  • Minute
