Format of "Original Estimate” and “Remaining Estimate " in WDH instead of SP

Vikram Abrol January 20, 2016

We had a field “Original Estimate” and “Remaining Estimate “ under User Story that had week –day – hour format by default .

We wanted to get into Story point format . The admin group was requested . It seems that they had left Original Estimate field and created a new field as Story point. 

Now , in Sprint  # 1 we had kept hours as W-D-H format , while in Sprint 2 once we had this new field ( called “Story Point” ) added .In Sprint # 2 , we started logging story points in user story level estimate and task we go with hours.But we are seeing some discrepancy on burn down chart.

 

Example :

In our sprint # 2 we had estimated 270 hours ( around 34 SP ) , but team is seeing a size of 432 hours on Burndown .  What could have caused this extra hours  ( 160 hours ) ?

Could we get a screenshot of your bugged report?

Did you change your estimation statistic to match your field choice?
