Take a look on eazyBI reporting application with JIRA integration. It will perform regular import from JIRA and will create several pre-defined sample reports as well as you can create custom reports using any standard JIRA fields as well as selected custom fields. You can create reports, charts and dashboards in easy drag-and-drop style.

Hi,

You can try https://www.jirareports.com. It is a cloud based tool that allows creation of free form reports for OnDemand and hosted Jira instances. It offers different types of reports such as bar chart, matrix reports etc. and has a rich set of features available, such as publishing the reports, calculated fields and export capabilities.

Thanks

Coming slightly late to the party I have a couple of comments:

1) I'm somewhat disappointed by the lack of an inbuilt generic reporting tool. Eg I spend some time maintaining work logs in detail. Can I find or create a report to summarise my work logs by label, by project, by task (rolling up sub tasks)? So far, the answer seems to be "no".

2) Reporting add-ons at x-thousand dollars (for 500 users) is fair enough of the tool is super advanced - but this is not really an excuse for the lack of basic customisable reporting in Jira (which already costs x-thousand dollars). That's a personal rant - even Microsoft offer more flexibility when you buy their software. Yes I know about the more basic and much cheaper Timesheep add on, but this solves the example problem above and then you are back to square one.

3) One thing that everyone seems to have overlooked is: just run SQL queries against the underlying database. Add perl if the reports need to be more complex/web based/pretty. This is *exactly* what perl and SQL were made for. Replace perl with sensible scripting language of choice. So far, it seems the database is clean and lends itself to this type of querying.

Given that I'm not about to ask to spend large amounts of money, I will go with option 3 :)

Still disappointed...

You can generate daily, weekly or monthly reports using Weekdone JIRA reporting and dashboards add-on: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.weekdone.atlassian-connect.jira 

It's mainly to get a really quick and simple visual overview of how you or your team is doing.

Hi Munal,

Have you seen the Intelligent Reports plugin? It lets you design your templates in Word for easy formatting, then fill in the templates with simple, powerful point and click rules. You can do charts, tables, custom fields, work logs, issue history, projects, versions, components, etc. Try it out and see if it meets your needs.

Many users succeed with implementing custom reports using the JIRA PDF View Plugin.

Sample reports:

  1. Sales report
  2. Gantt project report
  3. Traceability report

The plugin at Marketplace: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/5167

Tutorials:

  1. Implementing your reporting logic
  2. Drawing charts in the reports
  3. Bringing it all together (customization guide)

(Discl: this plugin is our product.)

Thanks Ferenc, does this plugin work with OnDemand JIRA?

unfortunately not.

OnDemand does not allow 3rd party plugins at the moment, although Atlassian is actively working on a technology called "remote plugins" (aka "plugin three") that allows to integrate external plugins with OnDemand. as soon as it goes into production, we will leverage it.

Is this the only solution to create reports in JIRA?

Are creating filters and exporting to Excel or Word, etc. the only capabiliy JIRA has within the system?

Tudor Hofnar October 26, 2012

any answer to this question? I am also looking for more detail about reporting, without having to use another tool for another $50/month

This has been my biggest frustration, but then I was able to connect Jira with Power BI using Jira APIs. I have made it opensource and you can get it from here,

https://github.com/KoderLabs/jira-powerbi-template

Using Power BI, you can create all sort of reports you want without much hassle. Before going with Power BI, I tried creating a plugin, but creating a plugin for every report takes too much time and is too much hassle to manage a lot of reports.

You can create your own plugins, there is a tutorial that explains it in detail on the Atlassian wiki - https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/Plugin+Tutorial+-+Creating+a+JIRA+Report
