How to count velocity for ended sprint in case the sprint value was missing

Question

Hi,

We are tracking our sprints velocity after each sprint (via Jira & easyBI)

So we have sprints 1,2,3,4,5 (we have other convention) - and sprint 3 was just ended few days ago and sprint 4 was started -  but we saw that mistakenly some team member removed the sprint  3 from all stories and place sprint 4 instead but eventfully closed that before sprint 4 started (meaning while sprint 3)

Now - its seems that they didnt completed nothing on Sprint 3 (and i am not sure if it will be counted on sprint 4 when it will be ended..)

i also cant add sprint 3 to the sprints as it was closed already - and i can select only current / future sprints.

Any advice how to fix that?

Thanks!!

Thanks. i will keep the option to for the live Demo (looking good)

But if i will reopen the Sprint - i will have 2 active sprints? what will be the affect of Sprint 4 that already "alive"?

Hi @Shmuel 👋

I suggest that you reopen Sprint 3 and make the necessary corrections to the Sprint contents.

How to reopen sprint → https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/reopen-a-sprint/

Also, with my SaaSJet team, we built a new Sprint Performance Report where we have all the metrics for each sprint. One of them is Team Velocity.

I would be happy if you had a look at it!

You can also book a live demo - we'll show you the application inside out and answer all your questions.

Have a nice day and happy sprinting 🥳
