Problem
I want to create a burnup report in my structure.
Solution
Here is an example of how a burnup report can be created:
1. Build your structure with the data that you want to report on. Add the issues to the structure using generators: https://help.tempo.io/structure-dc/latest/generators and visualizing the existing hierarchy between them, if there is any.
2. Add the necessary columns to the view: https://help.tempo.io/structure-dc/latest/columns-and-views You can display any existing values in Jira fields in columns, and have as many columns in the structure as you need. Values in numeric columns can be aggregated by summing up the values of child items and showing the sums for their parents.
3. Add the Formula column: https://help.tempo.io/structure-dc/latest/formula-column for applying any metrics you want, using custom logic to create new values based on the data in Jira fields. The Formula column and other Structure-specific columns can be used in numerous ways, calculating different kinds of data - comparing current or calculated values against the defined baselines, checking dates both already set in Jira and predicted from the data on hands, tracking the ongoing progress and much more.
Additionally, you can add more visual cues to such values using Wiki markup: https://help.tempo.io/structure-dc/latest/wiki-markup-in-formula-columns , and adding colors, images or emojis.
Also, the created structure can either be displayed on your Jira dashboard/Confluence page: https://help.tempo.io/structure-dc/latest/structure-gadgets , or exported: https://help.tempo.io/structure-dc/latest/exporting-structures if you need to share it outside of your Jira instance. In any case, the configured structure will appear in the same exact way there as on its Structure board with its issues, columns, and added markup elements.
