Weekdays, weekends, and public holidays

The colors of the days on the timeline differentiate workdays (light gray), weekends (darker gray), and public holidays (pink), as indicated in the following image:

Plans

The issue boxes that are displayed on the timeline are called plans and indicate which issues are planned for which team members and for how many days.

Plans for individual team members

The team member rows display the time that is planned for each team member. The number of planned hours is displayed at the right end of each plan and is calculated based on the team member's availability to work on the team.

Tip

Even if the availability of team members to work on the team is less than 100% of their time, plans can still be for 100%. For example, Erica works 8 hours a day. She is in two teams, with 50% availability for each team. One team lead sees that no work is planned for Erica on her other team and creates a plan for 100% availability instead of 50%. All of Erica's 8 hours go into the plan.

Plans for the whole team

The top row of the timeline is the team row. Any plan in the team row is a plan for the whole team. Team plans are copied to the rows of all team members except where they conflict with plans for individual team members. Plans for individual team members take precedence over copies of team plans in occupying team members' available time. You can show or hide copies of team plans.

Repeated plans

A plan might be repeated weekly, every two weeks, or monthly.

Plans from other teams

If team members are in more than one team, the plans that were created for them on the timelines of their other teams are also displayed. You can show or hide plans that are from other teams.

Background color of plans

The following image shows how plans can have white, gray, or light blue-gray backgrounds. Also, the background color can be solid or semi-transparent. The table beneath the image indicates which kinds of plans have which background colors.

Background color	Type of plan	Location	Repeated instance	Created in
Solid white	Team plan	in the team row	No	This team
Solid white	Team member plan	in a team member row	No	This team or another team
Solid gray	Team plan	in the team row	Yes	This team
Solid gray	Team member plan	in a team member row	Yes	This team
Solid light blue-gray	Copy of a team plan	in a team member row	Yes or no	This team
Semi-transparent gray	Team member plan	in a team member row	Yes	Another team
Semi-transparent gray	Copy of a team plan	in a team member row	Yes or no	Another team

Too much time is planned

If a thin red line is displayed at the top of a row, more time is planned for the team member than the number of working hours in the day. You can click the red line to view the percentage of the working day that is planned for the team member. Team leads and other users with Plan Time permission can edit the planned time.

Color-coded issue keys

By default, issue keys are colored orange. However, a user with JIRA Administer Projects permission might have configured project colors so that the issue keys are color-coded according to project.
