Schedule Delays

Feature

In Estimates with an Item breakdown, you can choose whether a delay is measured in hours or days.

In Estimates with a Category breakdown, delays were measured in hours, but starting with Goldenseal 3.9, they are in days, instead.

NOTE-- The Unit Size field in a Category breakdown is just a text field, so we can't offer a choice of delay units like we can in an Item breakdown.
