How is the Projected End Date Calculated?

SB_zzzrzz

I have a Kanban Board for Features that calculates some of the Features with a Projected End Date.  I can't figure out how this field is being calculated.  Does anyone know the formula?  I would expect it to be based on Sprint scheduled, points estimated, and maybe team Capacity but this doesn't seem to be the formula.  Some of my Features have the Sprint, Points, Team but still no projected end date.  Any ideas?

Hi Sherri,

I'm not sure I understand what field this is here.  In my own Cloud site, I don't seem to have this projected end date.  So it might be that this is a custom field in your Jira Cloud site, or that this might be some functionality provided by an app/add-on to Jira Cloud.

Would it be possible for you to share with us a screenshot of where you see this field so that we can perhaps gain a better understanding of how it appears and maybe learn more about what generates that field?

While I cannot look at your site directly, I was able to determine your Jira Cloud site appears to be using a marketplace app called Workfront for Jira.  I'm not familiar with this app, but it appears to be syncing some data such as projected completion dates from this other application into Jira Cloud.  It's not for certain that is what is causing this here, but it might be worth investigating.
