Reports Burndown Chart

Emil Naghiyev August 4, 2025

Hello, how can I remove some custom fields from this Metric Selector in Reports -> Burnown Chart?

 

I removed these custom fields from Screens, Field Configuration, this custom field has no value for in the tasks of this Project. 

 

Custom field was global, I removed it from this project in its settings. 

 

What I have not done yet is Reindexing. May it be because of that it is still visible in the Reports?

Hi @Emil Naghiyev,

The only solution I see is to completely remove those custom fields from your Jira instance (from Jira Admin > Issues > Fields > Custom Fields).

But before you do that, make sure they are no longer used in projects.

We definitely need them in or Service projects, but not in Software projects.

Hi,

 

If you are considering another app for the burndown chart, please check the eazyBI app for Jira. You can find example burndown charts on the demo account here: https://eazybi.com/accounts/1000/dashboards/16201-forecast-and-management

 

Kindly,

Janis, eazyBI support

I came across this post, where they say you cannot hide it, which I find very annoying to be honest.

If there is Feature Request from Atlassian about this, I would be happy to mention it also there.
