Difficulty with project tracking (no duty hours)

[Roger]

It does not seem to matter what I do when I put a booking in I get the
following errors:

Error in plan scenario: Roger has no duty hours at 2009-04-08 12:00:00
EDT to be assigned to Project... etc etc

project 2009Projects "ISG 2009" "1.0" 2009-03-30 - 2009-12-31 {
# Hide the clock time. Only show the date.
timeformat "%Y-%m-%d"
# The currency for all money values is EUR.
currency "USD"
timingresolution 30 min
now 2009-4-14
# We want to compare the baseline scenario, to one with a slightly
# delayed start.
scenario plan "Plan" {
scenario delayed "Delayed"
projection { strict }
}
}

resource Roger "Roger McILmoyle" { rate 100.00 }
task Project2009 {
task hrceridian "HR Ceridian Reporting" {
priority 1000
task ceridiandatamodel "Ceridian Data Model" { complete 100 start

task factmeasures "Scope Definition" {

task interfacebuild "Interface Build" { depends !interfacedesign

interfacebuild effort 20h allocate Roger }
}
}
supplement resource Roger {
booking Project2009.hrceridian.factmeasures 2009-4-8-10:00 + 4h
}

Any help understanding what my basic error is would be appreciated.

Since you haven't changed the working hours, you are trying to book
the lunch break.

Oh my that was sort of obvious ..
I was trying to track progress on tasks and it seems if you wish to do that you have to function at the most detailed level. I was not concerning myself with lunch time etc... it must be an assumption there is a lunch when in reality one rarely exists...

Thanks.

TaskJuggler can't know how sloppy you plan and track your project.You
need to tell it. Bookings are meant for recording of exact work times.
But you can change the working hours and use the 'sloppy' attribute to
do a more relaxed reporting.

Thank you. Took a bit to get my head around what it was doing and it's very elegant once you 'get it'.
