Tips

  • Run the Capacity Report at the start of sprint planning to validate commitments before finalising
  • Group by Team for a leadership-level rollup; group by Assignee for individual workload detail
  • Set Hours Per Day and Working Days correctly in Settings - inaccurate settings skew the Available column
