Hello KP,

You can achieve this by setting "max_unit" attribute in the dictionary of Remaining Effort field.


1.Right click on duration field.
2.Goto configure dictionary.
3.Click advance ui action under related links.
4.Add max_unit=days in the Attribute field.
5.save the record.

Let me know if you have any question.

To show only days, how its achievable , can you point out...

Attribute set for minutes

Duration field converted to Minutes

Hello,

Try below code on On-load client Script for duration field to hide hours, min and sec:

function onLoad() 
{
 document.getElementsByClassName('col-xs-7 col-sm-12 col-md-12 col-lg-8 no-left-padding-lg')[0].style.display='none';
}

Let me know the result.

This works.

But what about if there are multiple duration fields on form, how we can specifically do that.

If you noticed in below code there is an array index number which will specify the index of duration field. In case of multiple duration field you need to specify the index number.

document.getElementsByClassName('col-xs-7 col-sm-12 col-md-12 col-lg-8 no-left-padding-lg')[0].style.display='none';

Hello KP,

I have checked with max_unit=days and its seems that attribute will not work with Days. To achieve this you need to write below onload client script. You just need to Replace TABLE_NAME with your table name(for eg: 'u_test') and FEILD_NAME with your duration field name (for eg : 'u_duration_field').

function onLoad() {
 
g_form.getElement('ni.TABLE_NAME.FIELD_NAMEdur_hour').style.display='none';
g_form.getElement('ni.TABLE_NAME.FIELD_NAMEdur_sec').style.display='none';
g_form.getElement('ni.TABLE_NAME.FIELD_NAMEdur_min').style.display='none';


}

Below code helped us:

function onload{

var a = document.getElementsByClassName('col-xs-7 col-sm-12 col-md-12 col-lg-8 no-left-padding-lg');

a[0].style.display='none';

a[1].style.display='none';

}

you can increment the value based on number of duration field on the form.
