User Interface
Team Forecasting
The Team Forecasting page helps product owners understand the difference between planned team capacity and target team capacity. This knowledge of team capacity allows them to plan their work accordingly. In team forecasting, the capacity is calculated using the target velocity of the team.
You can use Team Forecasting to:
- Check at specific time intervals whether the teams are overloaded with work or not.
- View details of planned capacity versus target team capacity in terms of percentage or points.
Team Calendar
The Team Calendar enables team members to view and manage important dates for their team. With this option, you can visualize team schedules and set reminders for important dates, such as holidays, time offs, and other tasks associated with your team. You can track daily or monthly events associated with your team.
The team calendar allows you to perform the following actions:
- View calendar events of team members spread across multiple teams.
- Plan team tasks based on the availability of team's resources.
- Monitor daily and monthly calendar events of team members.
- Edit or Delete calendar events created by team members.
