Hi @Dominic Lautrey! 

This is something that we handle in minware, if you are open to 3rd party solutions. Our plug and play dashboard combines version control, ticketing, and calendar data to automate reporting.

Our burndown and burnup charts provide crystal clear transparency into work-in-progress (WIP) inventory. We offer unique ticket groupings that are helpful - in determining how tickets added after the start of the sprint have impacted your teams capacity and affected their ability to complete planned work.

 

We offer a free trial if you would like to check it out!

Hello @Dominic Lautrey 

Can you provide more details on what you mean by "burndown chart on capacity"? What are you trying to achieve with such a chart?

Hello @Trudy Claspill ,

my client wants to know in the currently sprint how would he know how much work is completed in the middle of the sprint and how much is remaining based on the capacity of the team

[Trudy Claspill]

How much work has been completed and how much remains in a sprint is not based on the capacity of the team.

A sprint is planned and work allocated to it. It is at that time that the capacity of the team should be considered so that the amount of work allocated to the sprint doesn't exceed the team's capacity for work.

The Sprint Burndown chart will show how much work has been completed and how much remains.

I am unclear how you or your client think that the capacity of the team factors into this once the sprint has started.
