Defining Work Classification

Overview

Work classification is information used to subdivide work from the perspective of work type, such as reviews and rework.
By assigning a work classification when entering actual work hours, you can aggregate actual work hours at a finer level than with work items.

Using work classifications eliminates the need to separate work items, reducing the number of work items.

This section introduces how to use work classifications.

Common Procedure

To define a work classification, first perform the following steps as a common prerequisite:

1. Click your login name in the TimeTracker RX global navigation.

   

2. Select "System Settings".

3. Click "Item Type" in the local navigation.

   

4. Select "Work Classification" from the left menu.

Adding and Deleting Work Classifications

Please refer to the following video (3:45~) for the operation flow.

Adding

Add a work classification that aggregates actual man-hours at a more detailed level than work item.
The added work classification can be made available in the project settings.
If the arc item is a process (basic design, implementation, etc.), it is convenient to set the work classification for each process (implementation, review, etc.) in the work classification.

Procedure

1. Click the "+" icon at the top of the work classification list.
   

   

2. Enter the work classification information in the "Create Work Classification" dialog.
   

   

   The input fields are as follows:

   No.	Item	Description
   1	Name	Work Classification Name
   2	Code	Code to identify the work classification
   3	Color	Color to display the work classification
   4	Description	Description of the work classification

3. Click the "OK" button.

Deleting

You can delete unnecessary work classifications using the following steps.
Work classifications already used in the project can be continued to be used.

1. Select the work classification to delete.

2. Click the "-" icon at the top of the work classification list.
   

   

Restoring Deleted Work Categories

You can restore deleted work categories using the following steps.

Use this if you accidentally deleted a work category or want to reuse a deleted work category.

You can delete unnecessary work classification groups using the following steps.
You cannot delete a group if it has active work classifications.
