Is it possible to have a jira dashboard with the epic progress

Question

Hi,

I'm asking if we can have an epic progress in the jira dashboard and for each new jira related to the epic the the progress of the epic will be changed.

Any idea?

Thanks & Regards,

AH

Hi @Akli HAMRAOUI

In the previous message, BigPicture was mentioned. Let me explain in a few words about the possibilities of tracking epics in our plugin. The Scope/Gantt module is a customizable task list. Using these modules, you can freely arrange columns, switch between views, and show aggregated values on a parent level.

Please note that there are 2 calculated fields: Time Tracking (Spent) and Time Tracking (original). You might use time tracking to measure the progress of a project or its phases in the Scope or Gantt chart modules. Calculations are based on the Jira’s Time Tracking fields (Original Estimate – Remaining Estimate – Time Spent). The key point here is that BigPicture (and BigGantt) are capable of aggregating time logged to low-level elements, such as sub-tasks or stories.

Could you have a look at my pictures below? The first one displays epics and all its children, and the second shows a more high-level view focusing only on aggregated data for epics. Notice how the epic in the screenshot aggregates the progress of the attached stories.
