@Clayton Lee Release Vehicles are either synced to Jira's fix versions thru the Connector OR you can decide not to sync them thru the Connector and create them standalone in Jira Align. Whether Agile, Waterfall, or Hybrid, Release Vehicles allow you to track all the work you are planning to Release for that particular…

@Samantha Michael For Stories, the estimation type is points. However, for Features and above, on a per portfolio basis, you can determine if you want to use Points, T-Shirt Size, Team Weeks, or Member Weeks. If you selected Member Weeks, for example, then Features and Portfolio Epics would be sized using Member Weeks. If…

@Louise Boulton So do you have have the same scorecard listed on the portfolio (Admin-Portfolio) as you do for the Programs under it or are they different? I typically recommend that they all be the same. I am trying to understand how they were different. The reason I am asking was did you have the correct scorecard listed…

@Louise Boulton 1. For the 1st one, I would recommend opening a support ticket. One possibility is that they may be updating a different form at the program level than at the portfolio level. Go to Admin-Programs and check which forms are being utilized for each of the programs. Make sure the specific score card is…

@Joe There isn't any published documentation because it is really up to each company and their governance process. When you archive the PI, it also hides it from people being able to select it on views/reports like the roadmap, reports, etc. So, how far back are people in your organization looking? If it is only 1 year,…

@manish a When you go to Support, do the following: Submitting a new suggestion Not finding your request in JAC? No problem, simply contact support to submit your new suggestion. From the support contact form select: * What can we help you with? → Technical issues and bugs * Which product is this for? → Jira Align * What…

@manish a That is correct. The Target Start and Completion dates are available; however, the target start and completion sprint fields aren't available to be synched through the connector at this time. If this is something you would like, please open a Support ticket and Support can raise it as a Suggestion to our Product…

@RICHARD S BRAICO If you have bi-directional sync on, you could create the feature in Jira or Jira Align. However, if you create it in Jira, you will probably still need to go into Jira Align and update additional fields such as the parent and planning/quarterly increment.

@anagha_a_kulkarni Are you asking if you can hide the tab or a specific item within the dropdown list? Either way, the answer is no this can't be removed. Typically, this is an admin functionality so only your admins would be able to see/have access to this. The only thing you can do within dropdowns is to…

@manish a When you are mentioning sprints, etc being populated, have you clicked on the programs and entered the team information? The information entered for the team sums up to the program level. If you are trying to add the anchor sprint values, those can't be populated unless you have created the anchor sprints for the…

@manish a I assume you are utilizing all 4 levels of goals, correct? If not, you can't skip levels and just update this level of goal. Yearly goal is the lowest level of goal that is tied directly to a theme. This goal is always turned on. If you think this is the level of goal that should be displaying here, I would…

@manish a The field currently being shown is the 4th level goal (highest level). Your Jira Align admin can change the name of the field by going to Admin - > Terminology.

@M Amine For the data to sync, you would have to create/update a work item in Jira Align or Jira. This would only bring over those items that are created or updated. However, usually for an initial load of data you have to go to Admin-Jira Settings-Jira Integration and run the JQL to pull the data over from Jira. Make sure…

@Regina Skaggs You can see the velocity number on the sprint capacity report but it doesn't really take any information from this report directly. The team velocity is the average of the accepted points for the last 5 completed sprints (excluding IP sprints).

@Susana Sousa This report is in Jira Align and not Jira. Are you having trouble finding/seeing it in Jira Align? Are you able to find it but not seeing specific columns? Just trying to understand what you are specifically having trouble with.

@M Amine Do you have 1 Jira Project for the Program which contains the Jira Epics and then individual projects and boards for each team within the same program that contains the stories? If so, this is a Supported Structure for Jira Align.

@Vani SuriaPrakash Just want to clarify, are you asking about Jira or Jira Align? I am not aware of this type of deck for Jira. For Jira Align, if you are a partner, you can go to the Partner portal. If you are a customer and had a Partner implement your Jumpstart, ask the Partner for the deck. If Atlassian conducted your…

@AisM No it will not affect the existing work items.

@AisM Portfolio (next to Portfolio Epic) isn't a work item so not sure if that is a type-o above. Did you mean Theme instead? If so, you can turn the Add toggle off but must leave the Save toggle on. This will users to Edit but won't let them create new ones. Prog Epic (known as Epic by default in JA), there currently…

@AisM It looks like you changed your Platform Terminology settings and renamed something to Program Epics. Can you take a look at the Platform Terminology (Admin-Platform Terminology) and tell me what the original name was (far left corner). I was assuming Portfolio Epics were originally called Epics and Program Epics were…

@AisM For Portfolio Epics, there currently isn't a way to separate the Create and Edit functionality. If this is important to you, I would recommend you open a ticket with Jira Align Support, and they can create a Suggestion ticket for our Product team to consider. For Program Epics (assuming you are meaning Features), you…

@manish a This is just occurring because based on the sprint ID numerical order (oldest to newest), the system would expect the dates to be flip flopped (oldest to newest). So on Sprint ID 3026, it is expecting the dates would have been 8/17-8/25 and Sprint ID 3028 would have been 8/28-9/8. If your sprints are mapping to…

@Morten Christophersen If your setup is 1 Project for the Program with each team having its owns board and sprints, I would check the team mapping field as @Allan Maxwell mentioned. However, if your setup 1 project/1 board/1 team, then I would check under Admin-Jira Settings-Jira Setup that the following is set to Yes :…

@manish a If you are talking about the category field for a feature, there is a report that will show you features planned vs features accepted by category for the PI (not the sprint). It is also by count rather than points. However, you can click it and it will show you the specific features for that category. The report…

@manish a one way you could do it is to go to the Stories Grid (not backlog) (New Nav - Items -> Stories, filter by the Program and the increment (same as what you are using for Program Room) and State not= Accepted. Select More Actions and export the stories. Then filter on the column called Sync Sprint (select Sprint…

@Mit Tolia The allocations on the program allotment screen don't have any impact on the investment vs spend report. The allocations on that report come from setting the Theme guardrails (button on the top right of that reports page). Here is some additional info about setting the theme guardrails:…

@Mit Tolia Yes this takes the budget you allocated for the PI and allocates a certain percentage of it to those programs. This is used for the Funding Plan Report.

@Sergio Santos If the Target Completion Date is in the Schedule section then the Time/Skills tab that @Edvaldo Lima mentioned would be correct. However, if you are asking about the Target Completion Date that is shown a little bit below Schedule (see screen shot), then this is updated on the Details tab in a field called…

@Apryl Harris A couple of things to check... * Have you re-ran the Jira Integration (Admin-Jira Settings-Jira Integration) ensuring the query contains all the issue types, including custom issue types, and that the creation/updated dates are correct (might try running the JQL in Jira first to ensure you are getting the…

@Dixit, Vivek Custom fields can be added as a column and you can sort the column, but a custom field can't be filtered on thru Apply Filters.
