how to see total story points for a sprint that has not been started yet?

Krisnu Suthaporn _Bass_ December 17, 2023

I want to see the total story point of each teammate to balance the workload before starting a new sprint. When I was working for my previous company, I used to see a popped-up panel that showed the total story points along with my teammates' names on the backlog page, it looked like this:

assignee               issues            points
-----------------------------------------
name1                       4                   8

name2                      5                   9

name3                      4                   7

name4                      6                   10

My previous company used a paid plan, but my current company uses a free plan. I believe that this panel is called workload by assignee.

Is there any way to use this feature on a free plan?

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Jira does not have a "workload by assignee" function for anything other than time estimates, so I suspect someone at your old company installed an app that gave you the report.

You'll need to identify an app to add it to Cloud, but I can't point you at any, because I know it is something you should not be doing.  If you're using story points for estimation, you should never be allocating them to individuals, it's supposed to be a team measure, and also, Story Points do not give you an indication of effort.  It's also illegal in some places to measure individuals like that.

I see these 2 posts which shows me how to find the panel.

Unfortunately, I cannot find the 3 dots button on my backlog page.

Do you have any suggestions about this?

Thanks in advance!

If you don't have the three dot menu option, then you are not an administrator of the board.  You'll need to find the owner/admin and get them to give you admin permissions, or have them make the changes.
