Objectives report
The Objectives report is available:
on Jira Cloud (i.e. Jira sites with “….atlassian.net” in the URL)
on Jira Data Center with app version 8.3.0+; a Jira Administrator can install the latest version.
Use the Objectives report to see and track all the Team PI Objectives in an Increment.
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.
Linked issues are configured when creating or editing an Objective:
You can also filter by objective on the Team planning page to see the linked issues:
Creating and managing Objectives
To create, edit, or delete an Objective, you’ll need to switch to the relevant Team planning page.
Click the team board name to jump directly to the right page, with the PI Objectives panel already open.
Learn more about managing PI Objectives here.
Configuring the Objectives report
Select a Program and Increment to see the Objectives for that Increment:
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.
Export the report
Exporting reports is available now on Cloud, and coming to Data Center in the next app version.
Use the the “export”/“download” button to generate a downloadable PNG of the report, using the currently-selected Program, Increment and Teams.
This can be added to other documents or reports for stakeholders who can’t access the live report personally.
