Attributing Story Points for Partially Complete Rollover Stories

[Paul Volk]

Background:

I'm looking for some advice or suggestions as to the optimal approach for partially complete rollover stories and velocity calculation.

Scenario:

Let's say a developer picks up a 5 point story near the end of Sprint 1. At the end of the sprint, they estimate that they have completed 2 out of the 5 points. However, when the sprint is ended, the story (and all 5 of it's points) will be moved in to Sprint 2. Assuming this is the only story in Sprint 1 the velocity for this developer according to JIRA will be:

• Sprint 1: 0 points
• Sprint 2: 5 points

Issue:

This is causing the following problems

1. The developers velocity is not accurate from sprint to sprint. The reality is they completed 2 points, then 3 points in each respective sprint. But JIRA considers it 0 and 5 respectively.
   1. This also causes inaccurate reporting at the end of the sprint, making it appear that this developer did literally nothing in sprint 1.
2. It's not clear how many points are actually in Sprint 2 at the start of the sprint, forcing capacity calculation to occur manually.  e.g. It appears to be 5 points but really, it's only 3 points.

Solution:

• That's what I'm hoping the community can help with! Hopefully it's an obvious solution that I've simply overlooked :) -- Thanks in advance!

Hi Adam,

To prevent new users to receive a license for the products, you must uncheck the "User defaults".

Please, go to Site administration > Product access > User defaults (on the top right corner).
Then you can uncheck the Jira Ops, so new users won't receive a license for this product.
After that, click on "Set defaults" to save the configuration.
