Budget forecast !!!
Nice to have (specially my boss)....
On the following page :
/applications/teamwork/task/plan/operatorLoadTextual.jsp
Forecast workload (in hours) is calculated by operator (based on assignments)
This is a great feature !
An even greater feature would be to have BUDGET (HOURS * RATE) instead of HOURS.
And obviously a total per day + grand total (per month here)
With this feature my boss, would be able to have an (idea on) estimated budget for upcoming months (month by month as it is in current Operator load it's fine).

Budget management in Teamwork is intentionally kept as simple as possible.

Pietro, I agree with you.
Latest upgrades of TW included a "budget report" along with tasks/projects. That was missing for sure. Now, it's done.
That report is reproducing what's on the Budget tab.
I would have prefer something more similar to "project report" (from project/task Main tab) : meaning separate tables for each sub task.
On a budget prospective, by doing this way :
- One can get a consolidated view of main task and sub tasks (as in Budget tab)
- One can get a budget view for each sub task separately
That's a great feature (by budget oriented people :))But the feature dicussed in this thread (Budget forecast) it's something different.
The idea is to have an alternate view on "ressource planning" (or operator load)
Instead of expressing the load in man/hours.
The idea is to present the load in euros instead (or local currency).
That way, one can get an idea of budget forecast... What is my projected revenue (based on resource planing) for let's say the next three months.
It's not really a budget report per se.
Just a budget view of resource plan.Still not convinced ? ;-)))
