[Bug 1301485] [NEW] Error with "Task Schedule" over allocating resources (long_term_planning)

 

Public bug reported:

I installed OpenERP 7.0 from debian repository, latest deb package
(7.0-20140401 -231338-1)

1- Install the module project_long_term.
2- Go to "Project > Projects -> Create". Create a new project Test Project 1" with "Phases" checkbox selected.
3- Add a member "Test user" in the "Team" tab.
4- Click on "Phases" in the project form view.
5- Click "Create", name the phase "Test Phase 1", put 30 Days duration and save.
6- Create a new task called "Test Task 1" with 16 hours "Initially Planned Hours" assigned to "Test user".
7- Create a new task called "Test Task 2" with 16 hours "Initially Planned Hours" assigned to "Test user".
8- Go to "Project > Scheduling > Schedule Tasks", in Project select "Test Project 1" and click Compute.
9- Go to "Project > Project > Tasks", switch to the Gantt view. Tasks computation is done correctly, with Task 1 starting today and Task 2 starting 16 hours later.

10- Create a new task called "Test Task 3" with 16 hours "Initially Planned Hours" assigned to "Test user".
11- Create a new task called "Test Task 4" with 16 hours "Initially Planned Hours" assigned to "Test user".
12- Go to "Project > Scheduling > Schedule Tasks", in Project select "Test Project 1" and click Compute.
13- Go to "Project > Project > Tasks", switch to the Gantt view. Tasks computation is incorrect. Task 1 starts today, Task 2 starts 16 hours later, but Task 3 starts also today and Task 4 16 hours later.

So basically Task 1 and Task 4 are overallocated. And the same with Task
2 and 3.

I was expecting to get Task 1 starting today, Task 2 16 hours after Task
1, Task 3 16 hours after Task 2, etc

The "Task Schedule" seems to work when you add all the tasks at the same
time, but when you add some more tasks afterwards it mixes all the
tasks, overallocating resources.

This seems an important bug for me since it makes it very difficult to
keep an organized gantt over time, since it will be always necessary to
add more tasks over time.

PS: I faced the same problem with a project without phases.
