Tracking objective progress

The progress of an objective is calculated based on the Jira issues linked to it.

  • If the linked issue is an epic/feature on your roadmap and it has child issues, the progress will be calculated using the progress of the child issues.

Configuring the Objectives report

Select a Program and Increment to see the Objectives for that Increment:

Programs Objectives report Increment dropdown.png

If you were already viewing a Program/Increment, these will automatically be selected when you open the Report.

Filtering

Select a set of teams to view only the Objectives from those teams:

This will be reflected in the page URL, so you can share a link directly to this set of teams and their objectives.

Troubleshooting the Objectives report

Check that you can view the team and its Objectives on the Team planning page.

If you do not have access to view a team’s board in Easy Agile Programs or in Jira, Objectives from that team will be missing from the report.

“Add your first team objective!”

This message will show if there are no Objectives in this Increment yet for any of the selected team boards.

There may be Objectives for other team boards, if you have filtered out some teams.
