Time in Status Cycle Time Chart
The Time in Status Cycle Time Chart reveals how long tasks linger in each phase of your workflow. It’s like a magnifying glass for your process, showing where tasks get stuck and where they move smoothly.
When projects are delayed, use this chart to pinpoint which statuses are causing the most hold-ups and take action to rebalance workloads.
Tips:
Identify delays: see exactly where tasks are held up.
Optimize transitions: understand and improve handoffs between statuses.
Balance workloads: ensure tasks aren't bottlenecked in any one status.
How to read the Time in Status Cycle Time Chart
Y-axis displays a unit based on the analyzed data by the next logic: weeks (if the maximum metric ≥ 8 days), days (if the maximum metric ≥ 8 hours), or hours (otherwise).
X-axis represents the selected grouping option (e.g., sprints, weeks).
Stacked bars: represent the total time issues spent on various statuses during the selected grouped time frame.
The widest area indicates the status where tasks spent the most time, signaling potential delays or bottlenecks.
The narrowest area represents statuses where tasks moved quickly, highlighting areas with efficient transitions.
Hover over the stacked bar: a tooltip shows the status name during the selected time frame/grouping option, the total time of all issues in this status, and its percentage of the total time of all statuses during the chosen time frame/grouping option included in that stacked bar.
Click on stacked bar filters the Breakdown and the Issue list to focus on the clicked status, giving detailed insights into that specific segment.
