How do I customize burn-down report for a series of sprints?

[tanhm2]

Our development project team wants to develop report like Burn-down report (JIRA Software, GreenHopper) but target for series of sprint instead of single sprint as built-in Sprint Burn-down report.

User will input date range of sprint start as report parameter (statistic field is fixed as original estimation).

The chart data will be aggregated as total by selected sprints.

Which API or rest services should I use to develop this report?

Other, as my understanding, burn-down report is target to mornitor and track sprint as the progress at current time. User can check how much effort was burned up to now in compare with plan. Can anyone (with Agile experience) let me know if the above requirement is valid or not?

Thanks and regards,

Tan Hoang.

Hello @tanhm2

Your requirement can be implemented in Jira. But it's not supported out of the box.

If you intend to create reports across sprints and also based on aggregation of estimation (story points or time) across data range or for a fixVersion(based on releases) and then display them, then you need a plugin for it like eazyBI or dataplane reports.

I use dataplane reports for creating many of such reports.

Hi @Tarun Sapra

Thank you for your help.

I've just gone throught these reports but none of them can support the requirement when burn-down report must include all the changes: burn-down, issues added or removed from sprint, estimation changed.

Any other idea?

Hello @tanhm2

Burndown gives you all the info for the single sprint, when you want the same information, then you need to do some customization for achieving similar requests.

Based on the reports I have shared with you in above links, you would need to write your own JQL filters which get you issues which were added/removed from the sprints.  This is available via the following functions of the plugins
