Customize Issue History

Adjust the Grouping and Range of Dates

The chart will automatically display the history of the selected field over the past 30 days, grouping the dates by Days. ⚠️ To learn more about Groupings and Ranges of dates, click here.

  1. Navigate to the Chart By tab

  2. To change the grouping of dates: click the Grouping dropdown and choose another option.

  3. To change the range of dates: click the Range dropdown and choose another option.

Adjust the Values Included in the Time Period

We recommend turning this setting on if you’re creating a burn down or burn up chart.

When creating a chart with an issue’s history, Custom Charts will automatically include all values the field had during the range of dates. For example: you’ve chosen to report on the history of the Status field over the past 30 days, with each segment showing the history of the field by day. Let’s say the status field went from “To Do” to “In Progress” to “Done” for an issue on one of those days. The chart will show all 3 status values for the issue for that day.

If you want it to only show “Done”, since that was the final value for the Status that day, you can adjust the settings.

  1. Navigate to the Chart by tab

  2. Click the Calculate final values in time period only toggle so it turns green
