Velocity report - committed points show 0

HP_4m4rnq

Hi there,

I'm collecting a velocity report and find that the only month whereby the committed points were calculated was April.

I can find the reason why the other months were different.

Can anyone elaborate on how Jira calculates the committed story points?

Thanks,

Hugo

Hi @HP

As far as I know, it is based on the tickets that are in the sprint that have a story points estimate AT THE TIME OF STARTING THE SPRINT.

Is it possible that you have a bunch of unestimated tickets in a new sprint, you start the sprint and then add story points? Or you start a sprint with no tickets, then add them after it has started?

The fact that 5 out of 6 sprints have 0 committed seems to point to you doing something (incorrectly) each sprint.

Hi @Warren ,

I believe it's because we are putting the story point and not the story points estimate, see below:

If this is the reason, then I assume we need to put the story point estimate at the beginning of the sprint and the story points at the end?

Or just the story point estimate?

Hi @HP

It seems as though Story Points Estimate is for the Next-Gen boards and Story Points is for the classic boards - see this discussion.

I never thought to ask you which boards you're using, possibly this will help you

Hi @Warren ,

I read the dicussion and got even more confused. Why did JIRA created these two fields that just create more distraction?

Looking at my board setting, I'm estimating correctly for Story Points (April worked out fine).

Then JIRA introduced this new field and it stopped tracking the committed.

I guess I need to try with estimates and see what happens, but this is plain confusing.
