Get "time in source status" value using SQL

Amy Biasella

Hi,

Our team uses over 15 custom statuses within a certain workflow. I'd like to measure cycle times by looking at the average of the field "Time in source status" over a large group of issues.

I've read elsewhere that this value is calculated on the fly, so I assume I won't find it in the database.

I have a SQL query that returns the issue key, issuetype, old status, the new status, and the time the transition was executed. I know I have to do some fancy calculations to get the value from New Status - Old Status, but I'm not that advanced in SQL. Has anyone else achieved this?

Thanks

Sure thing Marco! I have to give 110% credit to a colleague who ended up solving it! We use Oracle - hopefully it will work for you.

Hi Amy,

we have exactly the same question. Any progress on your side you would care to share?

Thanks

great, thanks. We are working with MS SQL-Server but I will figure out a way, hopefully

You need to change the project key in few lines and the issue ID for which you want the time in status.

I limited this as there are a lot of records to go through if we dont limit it.

Vijay

Jo Nelson

@Marco Melas Was wondering if you got this fixed in MS SQL? Thank you.

Isabell Chittka1

Where do I have to insert this code?

Raed Muslimani

How do you remove the limit? I want to add a condition to only review the status for a certain time period, i.e and ji.CREATED between '2016-03-20 00:00:00' and '2016-03-20 23:59:59'

Raed Muslimani

Nevermind figured it out. Just under the preferences set to No Limit, and just add this line throughout the script. Updated script below:
