Jira Plans - Summary - Issue Progress

[anne.gerten]

Hello,

I really like the Jira Plans summary site.

I noticed our Issue Progress widget only shows 3 status: Done, In Progress, To Do.

So it seems, it does not show me issue with different status such Backlog etc.

How can this be adjusted, so the widget shows any status as needed?

Thanks,

Anne

Hi @anne.gerten

Issue Progress is shown based on the Status Category and not the status.

Thanks! Are status then mapped to a status category? Is it possible to somehow customize this for plans?

The status category can be selected when a status is created in Jira and there are only three options for status categories which are the ones you see on the progress bar, To Do, In Progress and Done. Unfortunately, there is no option to define new status categories.

Where in Jira can I see the status category that a status is assigned to?
