Need help in creating Weekly Dashboard for Kanban Board.

Question

How (or which parameter to use) to capture the start date and end date of the current week the way we can capture them while using the parameter "sprint" in our JQL as mentioned below.

* sprint IN (opensprint()) OR
* sprint  = opensprint()

It could automatically capture the start date and end date because we mention these dates while we start our sprint. But in Kanban board, we don't have any sprint to start. Hence, we don't create any time box where we mention the start date or the end date.

Hi @shantanu behera,

"Basically, I want to get the report from a filter which will help me understand how many of the issues (tickets) were in "In progress" or any later status in the workflow on a week on week basis."

Looking at your requirement, an option would be to try using the Cumulative Flow Diagram report of Jira.

If this report is not good enough for you (unfortunately it is not so configurable), then I recommend searching for an app on Atlassian Marketplace that provides such report or gadget.

If you consider the idea of using a plugin, our Great Gadgets app offers a powerful Cumulative Flow Diagram Chart gadget that can display this info for you with just a few clicks.

Danut.

Yes, the approach helps. It just how we need to tweak with the status we are using in our workflow. However, I was finding some anomalies. Will try to resolve and highlight if facing any issues.

Awesome, yes looks somewhat promising for me to fetch the details. Let me try this tomorrow morning IST and see if it works. Thanks once again Trudy Claspill.
