| Description | Specifies the time the task occupies the resources. This is working time, not calendar time. 7d means 7 working days, not one week. Whether a day is considered a working day or not depends on the defined working hours and global vacations. A task with a length specification may have resource allocations. Resources are allocated when they are available. The availability has no impact on the duration of the task. A day where none of the specified resources is available is still considered a working day, if there is no global vacation or global working time defined. Tasks may not have subtasks if this attribute is used. | ||
