Can I customize the number of months in the Velocity Chart? 


I recently noticed that the number of months available on the Velocity Chart has increased from 7 to 12. Is it possible to customize this?

Hi @Patané ,

Unfortunately, it's not possible to customize it. And actually, these are primarily sprints; they become months if you have month-long sprints.

You can try the app I developed - Multi-team Scrum Metrics & Retrospective - to display many more sprints. You can even display not only sprints, but also months, quarters, half-years, or years.

With the app, you also can:

• Track any custom metric constructed using JQL across any periods - sprints, months, quarters, half-years or years for multiple teams in a single view.
• Conduct in-place retrospectives
• Compare metrics between teams or periods
• Identify, quantify, and prioritize reasons behind mediocre performance, and easily justify budget allocation for improvements
• View dynamics between the current and previous periods
• View % of a metric relative to Initial or Final Scope. Average of metrics for the selected periods

and much more.

Best regards,
Alexey

Hi @Patané 

While Jira doesn't offer a built-in setting to customize the number of sprints displayed in the Velocity Chart, there are alternative solutions.

• You can create a custom velocity report using a specific time range, such as months, weeks, or a defined number of sprints.
• Besides that, third-party tools like eazyBI, Agile Velocity Chart Gadget, or other apps from the Atlassian Marketplace provide the flexibility to configure and customize the Velocity Chart.

These tools enable you to select specific sprints or timeframes, display data for more than 7 or 12 sprints, and filter by custom JQL, epics, or releases.

Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!
Thank you very much and have a great one!
