Sub-task progress

[Sushant Verma]

Hi Team,

Can you please suggest me some way to achieve the below on Jira :

1 . How to show progress on sub-task?
2. Can we create a dashboard to show the progress of sub-task linked to various epics?

Example:

Epic        Subtask      Progress
AAA         BBB               50%
XYZ          ABC              100%

Regards,
Sushant Verma

Hi @Sushant Verma 

We created a plugin called Agile Docs which can show you the progress of all the issues in your hierarchy down to the sub-task level.

It's in the form of a nested tree list rather than a linear table to make it easy to see what Epics your sub-tasks are linked to.

Hi @Sushant Verma 

If you would be interested in a ready made solution, You may want to try out our plugin,

Agile Tools : Epic Tree & Time in Status 

The plugin provides complete hierarchy of your Epics with their statuses, % progress based on time estimates and story points at each level and much more. The app also allows to view your issue links in the hierarchy view with their progress.

Along with this the add-on also provides Links Hierarchy, Multiple (more than 8) Time in Status reports to track your issues and Worklogs report to track time spent each day/week/month, based multiple filters/group

Hi @Sushant Verma 

First of all you have to define how progress is ..eerr...defined. E.g. Progress could be calculated from the difference of original estimate and time spent. Or progress could be just a custom field which the user just types a number.

Second issue that we have to address here is that subtasks are not connected to an epic via an epic link. In fact they are not connected at all. To solve this problem you would have to copy the epic link to a custom field an place that on the subtasks screens.

Let's take the second case, where progress is just a text/number field. The most easy way would be to go to advanced issue search, write your query so as to get the result you want. You only have to add the "epic link", "progress" and "custom field" into your columns. This would yield most likely the expected results.

The first case would be more complex and would require either a JA rule to calculate the field, or an app which would do the same calculation. That result would be then stored in a custom field which would be placed on the subtasks.

Finally, there could be some apps on the marketplace which could easily do all the above. Did you take a look there?

Hi @Sushant Verma ,

Can you explain how you measure the progress? Whether it is with status or some other ways. For example,  If sub-tasks is moved to In Review State then consider progress as 75% and Done as 100% Completion.

Thanks,
Avinash
