What is Jira's team paradigm for capacity allocation?

[Adam Bang]

I'm looking at working with Jira for planning across multiple projects that may run simultaneously and testing Advanced Planning. Individual capacity planning was removed from Jira Roadmap and capacity moved to the team level.

What does Jira mean by team?

1. An employee is assigned to one team (Dev team) and that team works on multiple projects
2. Teams are by specific function (Frontend, Backend...) and an employee can be a member of multiple teams based on skill set.
3. Teams are for specific projects and a Dev can be on multiple projects.

From the developers perspective a dashboard would be setup to show their across projects, but from the planner's perspective, how is Jira designed to allocate work?

I reposted this question to Advanced Planning and could not delete the question here.

Hi @Adam Bang,

I'll reply on your reposted question and will close replies on this one, so you don't need to follow up on both ;-)
