Are you able to divide this field by the amount of hours a day? I used such a workaround in custom fields in the past.

Update duration unit to hours from days in Task
We are creating task using CreateAndRetrieve method using c# api, the work field is set to days instead of hours. Is there a way to update the duration unit to hours instead, using the c# api provided.

We did try to divide the field by the amount of hours a day, this did not succeed as CreateAndRetrieve accepts only integer and not a decimal value. Would be helpful if you could recommend any other alternative solution.

Hi Santhu,
The value you provide for the Work field should be of type Duration (having Unit & Value). This will allow to to provide the unit.
When you say C# API, do you mean the SOAP/Web services API?
I don't understand how you concluded "CreateAndRetrieve accepts only integer and not a decimal value".
The Value property of Duration is of type double, meaning you can certainly enter non integer numbers.
Hope this helps,
Ophir
