Modify Card Layout on Business Projects

[Cristina]

Hello,

I recently created a Business Project on Jira. I know it's possible to modify card layout on Scrum and Kanban boards but I'm unable to modify card layout on the Business board. Does anyone know if it's possible?

Thanks.

Hi Virgil,

What are you trying to show in the pie graph? The number for each issue represent a piece of the pie?

Hi Sana, it will be the total number of purchase orders generated for each issue type.

For example I may have 10 issues in my JIRA project that are for painting houses.  That may have generated a total of 34 purchase orders.  I might also have 4 issues that are for laying concrete and have a total of 7 purchase orders.

So my pie graph would reflect a total of 41 purchase orders spread among the two different job types (34 paint, 7 concrete).

Thanks for having a look!

Regards,

Virgil

Hi Virgil,

I don't think this is possible out of the box to be honest. There are a number of plugins that solve this, but since that is off the table, my suggestion is the following. Note: this is just a one-time thing, and a workaround for your current situation. Under normal circumstances I would not recommend doing it like this:

1. Create a select list called "job type" (if you don't already have one)

2. Create a script that calculates the sum for each job type and create a dummy issue for each amount. Using your example above, it would create 34 paint dummy issues, and 7 concrete. Make sure they have the correct "job type"-select list value set.

3. Create a filter with all the dummy issues.

4. Display the filter with an out of the box pie chart gadget, and use the "job type" select list as statistic type.

Good luck!
