Creating JIRA Dashboard - Sprint Health Gadget

Natalie Humphreys_hpdg6g

I create a dashboard and am using the Sprint Health Gadget. I see that items within the sprint are moving through the swimlanes and some are even closed, but no progress is being shown on the Sprint Health Gadget, 0% WORK COMPLETE and 0% SCOPE Change when we have had both.

I am wondering if this is because we are using tasks and stories WITHOUT using story points and just using TIME ( in hours).

Can you still show burndown and 0% complete if you are just using time?

 

Thank you!!

You need to use one measure of effort in order to have reliable results. In the Agile Board, check the configuration of the "Estimation" tab. If you want to use time, set it to "Original time estimate." The board will expect that issues will be estimated and use that to populate burndown information.  Bt default, Agile boards are set to use Story Points as their measure of effort.
