Project TimeLine helps managers to monitor the implementation of Releases/Epic in three dimensions:

  1. How much work is done (percentage completion) - tracked as resolved vs unresolved issues

  2. How much time is left (remaining days) - tracked as working days passed vs working days left

  3. How much effort is spent (logged hours) - tracked as remaining estimate + logged hours vs original estimate (optional: can be switched off in Configuration)

How to see percentage completion (Work Done)?

Navigate to the Release/Epic and expand it. The percentage completion is shown in “Work Done“ section as shown below:

  1. Percentage Completion = Done / (Done + Remaining)

  2. Done = Total estimates of resolved issues and sub-issues part of the Release/Epic

  3. Remaining = Total estimates of unresolved issues and sub-issues part of the Release/Epic

  4. Unestimated = Number of unresolved and unestimated issues and sub-issues part of the Release/Epic

How to see remaining days until planned end?

Navigate to the Release/Epic and expand it. In the section “Schedule“ you can see:

  • Percentage of time elapsed = Days Passed / (Days Passed + Days Left)

  • Planned Start Date

  • Planned End Date

  • Days Passed =Working Days elapsed since the Planned Start DateDays Left =Working Days left until the Planned End Date

    Info

    Teams can configure public holidays and non-working days in Configuration. This will be taken into consideration when counting Days Passed/Days Left.

    Based on the actual daily velocity, Project TimeLine calculates a predicted end date:

    • If the “Calculated end date” is before the “Planned End”, it will be presented in green. Hover over it and get details.

    • If the “Calculated end date” is after the “Planned End”, you will see a red warning. Hover over it and get details.

    How to see logged hours?

    Navigate to the Release/Epic and expand it. In the section “Time Spent“ you can see:

    1. Percentage of work done according to the effort estimate = LT / (LT + RT)

    2. LT (Logged Time) = total logged hours of all issues and sub-issues in the Release/Epic/Sprint

    3. RT (Remaining Time) = total remaining hours (RTE) of all issues and sub-issues in the Release/Epic/Sprint

    4. OTE (Original Time Estimate) = total original hours (OTE) of all issues and sub-issues in the Release/Epic/Sprint

    Based on the actual Daily Velocity and already logged hours there are several warnings you might get:

    • If the logged time will probably be more than the Original Time Estimate, you will get a yellow warning. Hover over it and get details.

    • If the logged time will definitely be more than the Original Time Estimate, you will get a red warning. Hover over it and get details.
