All project effort in Collaborate is recorded in person hours, but DataManager projects can record effort in hours, days, weeks, months, or years. If a match is found for an exported Collaborate project, the DataManager effort unit is preserved and imported effort is converted if needed. If a new project is added to DataManager, exported effort will be converted to the DataManager global effort unit in the target database.
The following conversion rules are applied:
•Target effort unit in years: Collaborate effort (in person hours)/(12* HrsPerPM).
•Target effort unit in months: Collaborate effort (in person hours)/HrsPerPM.
•Target effort unit in weeks: Collaborate effort (in person hours)/(HrsPerPM/4.33).
•Target effort unit in days: Collaborate effort (in person hours)/[HrsPerPM/(4.333 * 5)]
