Team Panel

Starting from v7.6, you can plan not only on the individual level but also team level with the help of a Team Panel.

Open

Essentially, this is a Team Timeline, that provides users of ActivityTimeline with an extra level of flexibility when it comes to planning team’s work.

You can switch between 3 different options to use Team Panel: Users, Teams & Team with Users.

1. Users CLassic

This is a classic ActivityTimeline overview, where managers can plan & track work of their users by simple drag’n’drop:

Open

The use case for this option remains the same as it was with the classic ActivityTimeline, when it was all about resource planning and proper visibility of who is doing what & when in your team. In this view, you can see the workload of every individual as well as their availability for future periods.

2. Teams *NEW*

This option allows planning and getting visibility on a high level for teams, rather than individual resources. You can select multiple teams at a time and plan for long periods like months or quarters ahead.

With the help of a multi-functional workload indicator, you can get information about teams' available capacity and their current workload. Workload indicator is available in Hours, Days & Percentages (By default this feature is turned off).

This mode is perfect for high-level planning for the department or even for the whole organization, as it allows one to schedule the big chunks of workload, like Epics or Program Increments to the whole team without a need to allocate it to individual resources.

3. Team with Users *NEW*

This mode is designed to provide a better planning experience for a single team. In this mode, the user can see the overall plan for the whole team in Team Panel of the selected team as well as the work schedule of all the team members.

This mode is very convenient as it allows combining long-term plans with actual execution. Users can see what Epics or Features their team is currently working on, and schedule related tasks to his/her team.

Events on Team Panel

Starting from v9.5.3 you can schedule not only Jira issues to Team Panel but also create ‘Booking’, ‘Placeholder’, or ‘Note’ event types that are local to ActivityTimeline. By using the team-level bookings or placeholders feature, you can ensure that your team is not overloaded and can take on new tasks. This will help you to better plan your team's workload, and make sure that they are always working at their full potential.
