[jira] Created: (OFBIZ-1725) Add a WBS (Workbreakdown structure) to every task/phase/project in the system

Nicolas Malin (Jira)
Add a WBS (Workbreakdown structure) to every task/phase/project in the system
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: OFBIZ-1725
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1725
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: specialpurpose/projectmgr
    Affects Versions: SVN trunk
            Reporter: Hans Bakker
             Fix For: SVN trunk


In order to able to identify structure in a project the WBS id needs to be added.

Theoretical background can be found at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_breakdown_structure

I would suggest a new field in workEffort although there are certainly other ways to do this.
The population of this field could be automated a lot, although manual adjustment will be required.

Hans Bakker commented on OFBIZ-1725:
------------------------------------

A work around is the include the WBS id as part of the name. This works quite well because most tasks/phase list are sorted by name.

David E. Jones commented on OFBIZ-1725:
---------------------------------------

Why would any data model change be necessary? There are plenty of fields and entities that relate WorkEfforts one to another.

On a side note, to quote from that wiki page: "A WBS is not an exhaustive list of work. It is instead a comprehensive classification of project scope. A WBS is not a project plan or a project schedule and it is not a chronological listing."

This is just an artifact to use in advance of planning a project to make sure you get all of the pieces in place and planned for. Still, either way, the most that could possibly be needed for something like this is a new WorkEffortAssocType, either to associate the WBS (WorkEffort) to a Project (WorkEffort), and/or to associate a parent in a WBS to a child in the WBS (though the parent work effort id could also be used for that).

Hans Bakker closed OFBIZ-1725.
------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

a workarounds would solve the proble is:
start the project/phase/taskname with a wbs number.
all lists are sorted on the name so that should do it...
