I've changed to

#+PROPERTY: Effort_ALL 2d 1w 2= w 3w 4w 2m
#+COLUMNS: %40ITEM(Task) %17Effort(Estimated Effort){:} %CLOC= KSUM

but there is no mapping between days, weeks, months and hours. = For example,
'2d' + '1w' is summed as '3:00'. How can I change t= his?

The best for me would be to have the summed effort in weeks.
Best regards,
Johan

You can certainly do that. Have a look at org-effort-durations. You could for example define the effort as '2d', '4w' or '7= m'.

You might be able to do something along this line. Have a look at the=
doc string of org-properties-postprocess-alist where it gives you an
example on how to calculate the remaining time (clocked vs estimated).
