#14 Report of the Week: Cumulative Flow Diagram

[#1]

This week’s “Report of the Week” showcases the Issues Cumulative Flow Diagram, a powerful visualization that helps teams track the flow of work through different stages over time.

What Does the Cumulative Flow Diagram Show?

The report tracks issue flow on a monthly basis over the last 12 months, offering a long-term perspective on team performance and workflow trends. This timeframe allows teams to spot seasonal patterns, recurring bottlenecks, or gradual improvements in throughput.

• Total Height: Represents the total number of issues in the workflow at any given time.

• Color-Coded Areas:

  • Bottom (green): Completed work (Done).

  • Middle (blue): Work currently in progress (In Progress).

  • Top (gray): Work yet to be started (To Do).

Customization with Page Filters

To make the report even more actionable, page filters enable users to drill down into specific data points:

• Projects: Analyze the workflow of individual projects or compare multiple projects side by side.

• Issue Types: Focus on specific issue types, such as bugs, tasks, or stories.

• Priorities: Examine how high-priority issues move through the workflow compared to lower-priority ones.

• Assignees: Understand individual contributions and identify who may need additional support or resources.
