Workload pie charts

The workload pie chart report provides an overview of how work is distributed in the project, based on assignee, status, resolution, and so on. This chart is useful if you are curious about general distribution of work underway in a project. A pie chart report does the same thing, but does not factor in time-tracking estimates.

To generate a pie chart or workload pie chart report:

1. Click the Pie Chart Report or Workload Pie Chart Report link from a project's reports page.
2. Select the general aspect of the project you wish to sort the data in the Statistic Type drop-down. For example, if you wish to see the distribution of issues by assignee, select Assignee. If you wish to see the distribution of issues by status, select Status.
3. Click Next.

The pie chart report includes a data table at the bottom of the report, that holds the specific values used to generate the chart.

User workloads

The user workload report displays the amount of time committed to work for a specific user. The report may be inaccurate, as it only displays time commitments to issues that have enabled time tracking. Running this report will let you see how much time a user has committed to various projects.

To generate a user workload report:

1. Click the User Workload Report link from a project's reports page.
2. Type a user name into the User field. BTS will provide suggestions as you type.
3. Select whether or not to include unassigned sub-tasks in the report by choosing an option in the Sub-task Inclusion drop-down menu.
4. Click Next.

Version workload

The version workload report displays work remaining on a project version. It organizes the work load into rows based on assignee, and columns based on bug type. This can provide and overview of the amount of time needed to complete bug types in a version, as well as the distribution of workload to specific assignees.

The report has two sections. The top of the report compiles a summary. The following headers provides workload details for each user involved in the version including. These are displayed by issue and show the type, key, priority, summary, and estimated remaining time for each issue.

To generate a version workload report:

1. Click the Version Workload Report link from a project's reports page.
2. Select a version from the Version drop-down menu. You can select both released and unreleased version.
3. Select whether or not to include issues that have no remaining time in their estimates by choosing an option in the Display unestimated issues drop-down menu.
4. Select whether or not to include sub-tasks in the report by choosing an option in the Sub-task inclusion drop-down menu.
5. Click Next.

Time tracking

The time tracking Report displays the progress of a project, comparing the original estimates of time to complete tasks with the amount spent. This report is useful if you are interested in whether a project is on schedule and which specific issues are causing problems with time estimates.

To generate a time tracking report:

1. Click the Time Tracking Report link from a project's reports page.
2. Select a version from the Fix Version drop-down menu. You can select both released and un-released version.
3. Select an order for sorting the report by choosing from the Sorting drop-down menu. The report can be presented with the least completed issues first, or the most completed issues first.
4. Select to include all issues or only incomplete issues by choosing an option in the Issues drop-down menu.
5. Select whether or not to include sub-tasks in the report by choosing an option in the Sub-task inclusion drop-down menu.
6. Click Next.

This report can be exported to an Excel file by clicking the Excel View link that appears on the top-right of the report. This will generate an .xls file containing the reported results.

Created vs resolved issues

Similar to the 30-day summary that appears on a project's summary page, the created vs. resolved issues report displays a linear graph. This graph helps when you want to compare the rate of issues being created in a project to the rate that issues are being resolved.

To generate a created vs resolved issues report:

1. Click the Created vs Resolved Issues Report link from a project's reports page.
2. Select the period of time that data points should be compiled on the graph by choosing an option in the Period drop-down menu.
3. Type the number of days you wish to include in the report in the Days Previously field. Reports will always include today and look backward in time for the number of days you specify.
4. Choose whether or not to use cumulative totals to compile the graph by selecting an option from the Cumulative totals? drop-down menu.
5. Choose whether or not to show version markers in the graph by selecting an option in the Display Versions? drop-down menu.
6. Click Next.

The graph includes a data table at the bottom of the report, that holds the specific values used to generate the chart.

Resolution time

The resolution time report shows the average number of days it took for issues to be resolved over a specified period of time. This is presented in a basic bar chart. You can click on any bar to view the associated issues in the Issue Navigator.

To generate a resolution time report:

1. Click the Resolution Time Report link from a project's reports page.
2. Select the period of time that data points should be compiled on the graph by choosing an option in the Period drop-down menu.
3. Type the number of days you wish to include in the report in the Days Previously field. Reports will always include today and look backward in time for the number of days you specify.
4. Click Next.

Average age
