Known issues
The following issues either are known problems or Below are a few known issues and non-obvious behavior in the current versioncases.
- If you are working with issues in multiple time zones they may be aligned slightly off on the timeline. This may result in a small error in the calculation of the parent issue dates (if grouping is used) or may lead to an issue being excluded from the critical path, because this deviation adds a small slack between the issues.
- If a formula is selected as the source for resource assignment, any changes made to this formula after the resource list has been built, will be ignored. For example, if your formula had a variable assigned to one field and you reassign variable to another field after the resource list has already been built, the resource list will not be updated to reflect this change.
- Bars visibility depends on the permissions of the structure owner (not just the current user). This means that if the structure owner cannot see some issues you are working with, you won't be able to see them on the Gantt chart.
- If you are migrating from the Gantt Beta, the tasks that are assigned to a resource with the capacity higher than 1 will now take longer. That's because we have introduced the Maximum Units parameter, which tells what maximum number of resource units can be used for the task and it is set to 1 by default.
- Default task duration for newly created configs is now 1 day (was 1 hour).
