Hours should move with tasks on Workload Planner

Workload balancer is not useful the way it does hours.

 

Today, if you have a task assigned to a user that should start today and is worth 4 hours but the task gets delayed and doesn't start until 2 weeks from now, the task itself will show on Workload balancer but the 4 hours will be stuck back on the original date. This is even if using projected dates. This makes the workload balancer unusable to "balance work" as it will look like the user has 4 extra hours of capacity. 

 

If a task gets delayed, I would carry the 4 hours over to the projected date on Workload balancer so it has an accurate representation of a user's actual workload. Until this is fixed, I have no use for Workload balancer or Resource Planner. 

 

We should not have to edit the planned start date of the task if it falls behind. That is the purpose of the projected start date.
