Business space templates are flexible and prioritize supporting however your team accomplishes work. They come with reports that help you understand how your team moves through their work items and identify any trends or areas of concern.

The Created vs. resolved work items report compares how many new work items your team has created to how many work items your team has marked as Done. This can help you understand how much work you’re putting in your backlog, and if you’re adding work more quickly than you can complete it.
To use the report, you configure three settings: a period of time to view, if you want to display the cumulative number of items, and if you want to see versions.
In the report, if there’s an area colored green, that means your team resolved more work than they created in that period. If there’s an area colored red, that means your team created more work than they resolved.
👇This is the Created vs. resolved work items report.
Create a report in a business space
Anyone can create a report in a business space if they have access to view its work items. The available reports are similar across different business space templates and in company-managed and team-managed spaces.
To create a report:
- Open your space.
- In the space navigation, click Reports.
- Select your desired report from the list. Depending on the report, you may configure some fields before generating your results.
👇 The Reports page shows all of the reports available in your space.
