Enable reports

This page is for team-managed projects

To check whether your project is team-managed or company-managed, select More actions (•••) next to the project name in either the header or the sidebar. At the bottom of the menu that opens, you’ll be able to view whether your project is team-managed or company-managed.

If you're in a company-managed project, check out these company-managed project articles instead.

More about the difference between company-managed and team-managed projects.

Reporting helps you track and analyze your team's work throughout a project or sprint.

Enable reports for your team-managed software project

Only project admins can enable and disable features for their projects. One way you can enable reports, is by:

  1. Navigate to your team-managed software project.

  2. Next to your project's name in the sidebar, select More actions (•••), then Project settings.

  3. Select Features.

  4. Enable the Reports feature.

Another way you can enable reports is by:

  1. Select Add to navigation (+).

  2. Select Reports, then Add to navigation.

The Reports tab will now be accessible from your project navigation.

View a report for your project

  1. Navigate to your team-managed software project.

  2. In the project navigation, select the Reports tab.

In team-managed projects, a report will only be available to view if there is enough data to show. For example, Burnup and Velocity reports won't be available if you don't have the Sprints feature enabled, because these reports show sprints data.

Reports available in team-managed software projects

Team-managed projects contain the following reports:

  • The burnup report tracks how your team did when comparing the work completed in a sprint with the work you planned to complete. It requires the Sprints feature to be enabled. Learn more about the burn up report.

  • The cumulative flow diagram helps you identify bottlenecks in your project’s work by showing how long work items stayed in each of your statuses. Learn more about the cumulative flow diagram.

  • The velocity report breaks down how much work your team was able to complete over a period of time to help you plan your next sprint. It requires the Sprints feature to be enabled. Learn more about the velocity report.

  • The sprint burndown chart shows how much work has been completed in a sprint against what’s remaining. It can help you predict and avoid scope creep. It requires the Sprints feature to be enabled. Learn more about the sprint burndown chart.

We'll continue to add more reports over time, as we add more functionality to team-managed projects in Jira.
