Unable to sum story points and customfields

[Rathna]

Hi all,

Currently I would like to achieve below..

Child Points Sum : Custom Field 

1) Add story points from all the sub-tasks into Child Story Points in the parent.
2) Add the story points field in the parent and the Child Story Points and display in the linked Epic.

Hello @Rathna 

Can you share with us what you have tried so far and where you are stuck?

The Atlassian team already have covered such scenarios here: https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/automation-template-library/sum-up-story-points

And the community is full of similar questions:

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Sum-of-all-story-points-for-child-issues-in-an-epic-when-the/qaq-p/2653047 

likely you need to create two rules -

1. For the Issue - Sub-tasks

2. Epic -Issues

In both cases you can use similar logic from the links I have provided.

Hi @Rathna

in addition to an Automation-based approach as mentioned before, another option might be to utilise one of the relevant apps from the Atlassian Marketplace.

As you can see, there's a number of apps available that operate in this space. As an example, this is how story point sum-ups would look in the app that my team and I are working on, JXL for Jira:

Note that sum-ups update live and in real time as you make your changes. You can also sum up any other issue fields, configure different sum-up styles, etc. etc.

For context, JXL is a full-fledged spreadsheet/table view for your issues that allows viewing, inline-editing, sorting, and filtering by all your issue fields, much like you’d do in e.g. Excel or Google Sheets. It also comes with a long list of advanced features, including support for (configurable) issue hierarchies, issue grouping by any issue field(s), sum-ups, or conditional formatting.

Any questions just let me know,

Best,

Hannes
