different teams - same workflow - different status definitions - how to effectively report as a PM?

I have 2 teams working on Jira using the same scrum workflow, but some statuses have different meanings between teams. 

For example, after an issue is created, the first status is To Analyse, then it moves to 'To Amigo' and then to 'To Poker'. 'To Amigo' means brainstorming about technical viability and 'To Poker' means allocating time to the issue. team A does this in 2 steps, but team B does this in one step. 

The whole workflow consists of these differences in status definitions, which makes it very difficult for the Project Manager to have a global view and make global reports. 

 

As no team is willing to adapt to the status definitions of the other team, is there another way around to make reporting and dashboard view more easy? 

 

Is writing JQL Queries and combining them for a unified view, in combination with dashboard building an option? 

 

(I'm a beginner at Jira, help needed!)

Hey @Julia Maes -

Full disclosure, I work for a 3rd party marketplace partner called minware. We make it super easy to define the "Definition of Done" for each of your teams and can handle this request.

Here is an example screenshot:

All we need to do is modify the "filter(subType.in('green'))" and set that to the status or custom field you want to use.

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

Does it need to be the same workflow? You can create a new workflow for team B that doesn't have the "Amigo" status or related transitions.
