Are Story Points calculated differently when using Advanced Roadmaps?

[MelvinDave]

Hi!

I just a quick question related to Advanced Roadmap. We are using a custom field for story points. Will this field be calculated in a different way rather than ones we are using in structures or boards?

Thanks.

Hi, @MelvinDave. I'm sure it's me, but I am having a hard time parsing your question.

As long as you sum the same custom field for Story points in your structures, roadmaps, and boards, AND the structure, roadmap, and board all contain the same set of issues; the totals should be the same in all three places.

The key thing is that you use the same exact custom field in all three cases AND the same set of issues.

Note that when you say "structures," I assume you are referring to the structures one creates with the Atlassian Marketplace product called Structure.

I hope this helps,
