Estimation problem

[Martin Lee]

Hi all.

Ok i'm on Scrum project lecture 6 about 3.44 minutes in and it talks about estimation and story points in sprint backlog, but my version does not show them, can anyone advise what im doing wrong or missing?

Cheers

Hi Martin. The backlog for scrum projects should show story points, simply by adding values to the Story Points field on individual issues. If you don't see them, please attach a screenshot of what you see.

Steve thanks they dont seem to show, ive added 3 items to sprint draft and given the points but not showing in the summary, see attached.

Cheers

Hi Martin. I believe you simply need to refresh your browser window. I created a next-gen scrum project and it worked for me. Estimation should be on by default, but you might want to verify this under Project Settings > Features.

Cheers Steve for the help.

Doh... yeah that did it perfectly, thanks, shame the training doesn't mention this or that you need to add estimates to each issue before they show in the sprint summary and total.

Diego thanks, this is helpful text, looks like it could be a bit out of date with the new next gen and Jira layout though
