Manually Set Project Task Due Date
Howdy! We're working with Project Tasks to plan out our project work. NetSuite's default behavior seems to require (1) Allocation %, (2) Estimated Hours of Effort, and (3) the Employee's Work calendar (ie: hrs per day available to work). With these inputs the system arrives at a calculated Due Date.
This doesn't work well in a lot of cases. We have scenarios in which:
* The End Date is fixed; it must be done by this date
* The task may only require 10 hours of work, but will be spread inconsistently over 5 weeks
* There may be multiple people Assigned to work on a Project Task, each with varying levels of effort.
