#79 "Fixed work" changing with task end date

[Jean-Marc POCHEAU]

Hi, I have tried to use "fixed work" (field "category" in task information, Advanced) tasks, and found something strange.

Let's create a task for 10 days, and 5 days work (task information, General) with category set to fixed work (task information, Advanced).

If I change the task duration to 11 days, the work still shows 5 days as expected. Fine.

Now, if I change the end date, the task duration change, which is fine, but the work is also changing.
I would have expected it to stay unchanged.

Do you have an explanation, or is this to be reported as a bug ?

Thanks in advance.

(I use 1.5.7 version)

Hello,
I agree with Jean-Marc.
I would prefer when a task is 'fixed-work' whatever is changed (or at least I don't see any reason at the moment) the work shall stay fixed - only when work is edited shall the value of work change.
The same goes for 'fixed-duration' and 'fixed-units'.
Keep up the good work :-)
Cheers!
