I have gone through the Community and am finding that OTB story summaries are not available in Jira. You would think this would be a base expectation on the app. I know it is an opportunity for a gadget maker to make some money, but fundamentally speaking, wouldn't this option be a base expectation of someone using scrum. And if this tool is for scrum, why wouldn't that be baked in.
I have several users operating in numerous projects. All taking up story points per story. I want to know the total number of story points per person so that if we come up with a basic guideline of (each user can do XX stories per sprint) we don't over burden them. How is this not an option on this app. We may have to move to ServiceNow if this can't be baked into Jira.
Welcome to the Atlassian Community!
There's a couple of important things here:
Bascially, story points are not a metric you should be thinking of in this way!
Hi @Clint Peitz
welcome to the community!
If you're open to solutions from the Atlassian Marketplace, there's indeed several options available. E.g., this would be trivial to do using the app that my team and I are working on, JXL for Jira.
JXL is a full-fledged spreadsheet/table view for your issues that allows viewing, inline-editing, sorting, and filtering by all your issue fields, much like you’d do in e.g. Excel or Google Sheets. It also comes with a number of advanced features, including support for (configurable) issue hierarchies, issue grouping by any issue field(s), sum-ups, or conditional formatting. With these, you can build a view like e.g. this in just a couple of clicks:
This is really just one example; I'm sure there are other apps that can help with this, too. As Nic said, there's a lot of things to consider when looking at an individual's story points, so whatever tool you end up with, definitely use this data with caution.
Any questions just let me know,
Best,
Hannes
