# Are draft PRs considered for calculation of coding/cycle time?

**Yes, draft PRs are considered in the calculation.**

**The time spent in the draft stage will be counted towards Coding Time, and not Review Time.**

Review time is calculated from the **last time the PR is moved to Active (open)** before approval, up until the **final approval**.

**Review Time = Final Active Timestamp (before approval) → Final Approval Timestamp**

#### Multiple Draft ↔ Active Transitions

If a PR moves between **Draft** and **Active** multiple times before approval:

* Any time spent in **Draft** is counted as **Coding Time**.
* Review time begins only from the **final transition to Active before approval**.
* The duration from this final Active timestamp to approval is counted as **Review Time**.
