Introducing the summary view in Jira software projects

[#1]

Hi Atlassian Community

I’m pleased to announce that we have started rolling out the summary view to software projects!

If you work in Jira business projects, you may already be a fan of the summary view.   We know that gaining a clear snapshot overview of your project is important for all teams to understand their project progress at a glance, so we’ve now enabled the summary view across both software and business projects.

The summary view has been designed to give you a glimpse into how a project is tracking, as well as business performance and workload distribution across team members. Each chart provides an easy-to-digest overview, with the ability to click through to view the breakdown of individual work items.

Key sections on the summary view include:

1. Overview cards: View issues that have been completed, updated, and created in the past seven days, as well as the number of items due in the next seven days.

2. Status overview: View your project’s overall progress on issues, based on the statuses in your workflow.

3. Recent activity: Stay up to date with what's happening across your software project.

4. Priority breakdown: View how work is prioritized within your software project, to make sure that your team is focusing on the most important work first.

5. Types of work: View a breakdown of your project’s issues by their type.

6. Team workload: View your team's current workload at a glance.

7. Epic progress: View a breakdown of the issue statuses across your epics, so you can quickly see how each epic is progressing

The summary view will be rolled out to all Jira instances over the coming weeks! We would love to hear your feedback, including any suggestions to improve the value this page offers for you and your team.

Hi @Lisa 

This is a really cool feature for Jira Software projects.

BTW, I have one point to discuss here:

In business projects, there is only one board. Summary view is really helpful.

But in software projects, there may be multiple boards in a single project. For a large product development team working at a single product, they may have 5~6 boards for each Agile team working on a dedicated product module or component. The Summary view (e.g. Team Workload) may be more helpful to show at each board level. What do you think?

Thanks,
YY Bro

Thanks @Lisa 

Looking forward to this ... from the screenshot on this article, it looks like it is in the new navigation view. Is this going to roll out as the new navigation is rolled out in our instance only?

If not, can you perhaps post what it would look like in the current navigation?

Also, is it possible to disable summary view at all? I sure hope our teams adopt this summary view nicely once it is rolled out.

Thank you

Will this be applied to both Team and Company Managed Projects?
