Overview

Unbalanced workloads are one of the most common and most preventable reasons sprints go sideways. Workload Overview gives project managers and team leads a per-assignee breakdown of open issues, showing the to-do, in-progress, and recently completed split for every member of the team. Configure an overload threshold and any assignee carrying more than their share gets highlighted in amber immediately. A CSV export makes it easy to share the data outside Jira, and KPI cards at the top give a fast read on total open work, in-progress items, and unassigned issues across the project.

Features

  • Per-assignee workload table with to-do, in-progress, and done (last 7 days) columns
  • Configurable overload threshold with amber highlighting for team members carrying too much
  • KPI cards showing total open issues, in-progress count, and unassigned issue count
  • Sortable columns so you can rank the team by workload in any direction
  • CSV export for sharing workload data in standups, retrospectives, or planning sessions
  • Project settings page to configure the overload threshold per project
