Jira Plan - Team velocity does not take absences into account

[Marcelo Gallego]

Hi.

I've configured absences (holidays) on team's members, however Sprint velocity does not take it into account.

How can I configured it right?

In this project Tema velocity is 70. However during January more than 50% of then month are unavailable because of my team's holidays. I'd like This plan get this information from absences an represent the real capacity during this sprints.

I appreciate any help.

Regards.

This feature is currently being worked on and should be available in a couple of weeks - judging by a the below statement from December 7th on this related question:
