Hi,
What we did... in customization we tried to change int(3) to int(1) and in result field automatically starts to be boolean and we loose any possibility to turn it back.
This is an issue we did not see : int(1) should be set only for booleans
We should have locked the possibility to change from int(3) to int(1).
This will be fixed on patch of plugin.
To revert, only possibility is to act directly on the database :
ALTER TABLE `planningelement` CHANGE `priority` `priority` INT(3) UNSIGNED NULL DEFAULT NULL;
You may change to INT(2) but may face an issue as defaut value is 500 : you'll have to define defaut value on every activity type.
- can we customize field priority to have not int(3) but just values 0, 1, 2, 3... or even P0, P1, P2, P3 ? How can we do that ?
This is not possible without coding a restriction.
- can we define 'progress' manually ?
No, not possible on activity : manual progress could not be consolidated on top level to get Project progress.
Only possibility to get the "weight" and "consilidable" progress of activity is work driven management.
Manual progress can be defined on project only (in completion to real progress, work driven)
