Performance Objectives: Charts for Jira offers extensive support for dynamic fields and metrics, facilitating comprehensive time-tracking Jira reporting. Among the powerful metrics available is ‘Time since,’ which enables you to track the time elapsed since a specific date field, such as ‘Created,’ ‘Updated,’ ‘Resolved,’ in Jira, and more. For a comprehensive list of date fields compatible with the ‘Time since’ metric, please scroll down to the bottom of the page.
Now, let’s delve into some sample chart configurations utilizing the ‘Time since’ time field.
Track Open Issues Age with ‘Time Since’ Metric
Analyzing and tracking open issues age with the ’Time Since’ metric not only ensures better issue management but also leads to more efficient workflows, improved team accountability, and data-driven decision-making.
In our example chart, we’ve selected the ‘Time Since’ field as the ‘Display By’ option. We are measuring the time elapsed since the creation of open issues, as defined in the data source, and have opted for custom slot splitters formatted in days for the chart bars. Furthermore, we’ve chosen to stack the chart by ‘Status’ to gain additional insights.
Combining ‘Time Since’ Metric with Target Feature for ‘Max Issue Age’ KPI Report
he Performance Objectives app goes beyond tracking elapsed time by offering the option to define a ‘max issue age’ target. Slot splitters and target feature are what sets our app capabilities apart the native Jira Time Since Issues chart, where those options are missing.
Targets feature allows teams to establish performance objectives related to issue age and ensures that timely resolutions are achieved. By combining the ‘Time since’ metric and a target for max issue age, businesses can optimize their performance, proactively identify and address bottlenecks, and significantly improve workflow efficiency.
In our sample KPI report, we’ve specified the open issues from the data source. We’ve employed the ‘Time Since’ – Created metric, measured in days, for detailed analysis. The ‘Display By’ parameter is configured to ‘Issue Summary’ to provide further insight into the characteristics of the issues. Additionally, we’ve enabled the ‘Target’ feature, set it to ‘Fixed,’ and established a fixed threshold of 3 days. Exceeding this target is considered undesirable:
