Show % Done Tasks in Dashboard

Question

Hello! I am configuring a Board of my project to have more control of the status of Epics/Issues, but there is an element that I can't show correctly and that is the percentage of Done issues that are inside an epic. With the column "Progress" the only thing that is shown is what is registered in "Time registered", but nothing related to the percentage of Done issues of the Child issues of an Epic. I have tried with almost all the columns and nothing: neither Status, nor Work Ratio... nothing manages to show this percentage of the attached screenshot. The progress of this epic should be 30% (which is what I see when I enter the Epic page next to Child issues) and not 100% as shown on the Board. I'd need to be able to access from the Dashboard to the information about % of Done issues of an Epic. 
Can anyone help me? Thanks

Again, disappointed by Atlassian this isn't a feature built in.

Hi @Ana Ortiz,

Try the Pivot Table & Pivot Chart gadget offered by our Great Gadgets app. This can be done with a few clicks.

Epics completion by number of tasks can be easily displayed, like this:

This can be achieved by configuring the gadget like this:

As Data Source you should use a filter of JQL that returns the issues under the epic (not the epics themselves). For example: type in standardIssueTypes()

Hope this helps.

Danut.

Hi @Ana Ortiz

Welcome to the community !!

If you would be interested in an app to help with % progress, you may want to try our plugin.

Issue Hierarchy

The app shows your Epic and its children hierarchy in a tree view. The app can help you easily Sum up values (time tracking/story point/custom numeric fields) to see overall progress for your Issues at each parent level, in percentage terms wrt time tracking and story points.

Also there are some special columns, like %complete which shows data based on the completion status of child issues at each parent level.

You can easily add it as a dashboard gadget too. Do try it out.

(Disclaimer: I work on RVS, the vendor for this app)
