Add support for time estimation and time spent
In our company we have a lot of customer related projects that are not only smaller in size then internal projects, but also requires us to report the amount of hours we have spent on a project.
What I would like to see is that the percent can be based on time spent / total estimated time. This is what we need:
1. Besides the current start date/end date chart we need a time estimation feature. Example; a project is due in three weeks, but in only requires 10 hours of development.
2. Add a time spent feature where our developers can add the time they have spent on a project. The percent calculation should then update based on time spent / estimated time. Example; The project is estimated to take 10 hours and 2 hours have been spent so far. The percentage should show that 20% of the project is done without the need to calculate it manually.
3. A nice way to show the hours spent in the chart.

Dear Nathan,
Integrating with HARVEST TIME TRACKING would be great. We use it and like it a lot

As a first step it would be great to have an "Estimated Hours" entry per resource (!) for any task.
The Availability view should then show the hours per week or day and not just the number of tasks.Example:
A 10 day task needs 20 hours. Resulting in avg 2 hours per day.
Another 6 day task, starting at the same time needs 30 hours, avg 5 hours per day.
The first week (5 days) will then show a workload of 35 hours
The second week (5 days, but only 1 day for second task) will show a workload of 15 hours. -

That would be really nice, but remember to keep the simplicity. It is the main reason for us to begin using your tool.
Another option would be to take baby steps, perhaps just add a column next to the percentage that shows "Total time (estimation) and spent time for each task?
Keep up the good work!

Yup, we would certainly like to do something a long these lines. We may even integrate with something like http://www.getharvest.com to leverage some of their time tracking apps.
