Initial Scope vs. Committed

[Mara Julin]

Hello, I have been reporting out on our team's velocity for the past few weeks. To do so, I created a JIRA dashboard for myself with velocity widgets from each team project. I just checked today, and the "initial scope" that is reported in the velocity widget is not matching the "committed" value that is reported in the team's individual velocity report. 

My understanding has been that the "initial scope" and "committed" points are the same thing. Can someone help explain why these values are showing up differently (see Sprint 15 in the photos attached)?

Sorry Neil, I missed that part. I don't think you can do that with JIRA Cloud out of the box, unfortunately.

Mehmet,

I am using JIRA Cloud so I cannot install that plugin unfortunately.

Neil,

Here is what you have to do (remove first the conditions from there)

1. Install scriptrunner plugin
2. Assuming you have In Progress, QA and etc statuses, each of them has transition/action ID's to move to each statuses. Use the fast track transition issue script for the Submit Info post function (script post function) as described here: https://jamieechlin.atlassian.net/wiki/display/GRV/Built-in%20Scripts#Built-InScripts-Fast-tracktransitionanissue
3. In that post function script, you can use the condition as (if previous status was "open"):

changeHistoryManager.getChangeItemsForField(issue, "status").getAt(changeHistoryManager.getChangeItemsForField(issue, "status").size() - 2).getFromString().equals("Open")

Hope that helps,

Mehmet

I have attached a screen shot of the 5 conditions I need and what post functions i have currently. I think I set them up as you indicated.  Now I assume I need a setup one or maybe 6 post functions based on the conditions?

Thank you for your help on this!conditions.jpg

Yes, you will have one transition with 6 conditions/post functions - and yes, you would have the same transition text.

This doesn't seem to solve my issue of wanting one button to display with the same text.  It seems like I either need one transition with 6 conditions or post functions, or 6 transitions with one condition or post function.  It seems like I still need 6 transitions and the appropriate button will show but I want the button to say "Submit Info" regardless of which of the 6 transitions is currently available to the user.

You can do this by either one of the following:

1. By using JIRA Suite Utilities Plugin which is free and use the post function called "Value Field" where you can allow executing a transition if the given value of a field (Status) is equal to a value or value set.
2. By using JIRA Enhancer Plugin (commercial) by using the Previous Status Condition post function
3. Using Script Runner post function script condition.

I guess #1 is the free and the easiest way to do it.

See the screenshots for #1.
