Advanced Roadmaps for Jira Cloud: Group by Project and display bottom-up estimates on project level

Joelle Güfel_42im4z

Hi there,

I am relatively new to Advanced Roadmaps for Jira and on the search for the answer to a very specific question. I have already browsed community posts for my problem but haven't quite found what I am looking for. So here goes.

As you can see in the screenshot below, I have built a Roadmap displaying Epics > Stories > Sub-tasks and grouped the issues by project. The 2 big, bright, orange bars are my addition (with the power of editing screenshots ) and what I would like the Roadmap to display. Is it possible to aggregate the estimates of the issues (in this case the time between start and end date) bottom-up to the level of project?

Why? We would like to visualize how long projects will last without having to go into the detail view. As you can see in the screenshot below, as soon as I minimize the view, the bars are gone and I have no indicator about the duration of the project.

Any tips or workarounds how to make this happen?

Thanks in advance for your answers and suggestions!

Cheers,
Joelle

Hi @Joelle Güfel,

As @elizabeth_jones there is a roll-up functionality, however this is only shown on issue rows and not on the group heading (which is what I think you're after?).

The ability to roll-up data to the group heading is something we've heard quite often but is not something that we have prioritised to implement in the near future unfortunately. Not because it wouldn't be a useful feature, but simply because it doesn't have a high enough relative priority against other work that we need to do. Unfortunately we have a lot more that we'd like to get done that we have developers to get things done so this means that we have to prioritise work carefully. I can see this being something that we'd want to add, but unfortunately not in the near future.

Regards,

Dave
