Resources

See who is over-committed before the sprint starts, from assigned work, estimates and recorded leave.

Documented for version 1.2.1 · Verified against 932d12e

A heatmap of who is committed to what, week by week, built from the work already assigned to them, its estimates, and the leave they have recorded. The question it answers is "can this team take on that?", before the sprint starts rather than after it slips.

Common questions

Somebody's week looks far too full.

Check for assigned open issues with no estimate. Each is counted at Hours assumed for an unestimated issue, and a backlog of unestimated tickets inflates a week quickly. The unestimated portion is shown separately so you can see how much of the total is a guess.

Somebody's week looks empty and should not.

Work counts when it is assigned to them and open. Unassigned work belongs to nobody and cannot appear.

A holiday is not reducing capacity.

The leave is not recorded, or was recorded against a different period. Turn on Users may record their own leave if asking a planner every time is the bottleneck.
