Assess Your Due Date Performance

The Due Date Performance Chart for Jira enables you to assess your due date performance by comparing the time between the start date and due date of an issue against the actual time needed to deliver your work. Each dot on the graph represents a completed issue from your board in Jira, with a cycle time on the horizontal axis and the predicted time displayed on the vertical axis.

Evaluate the Accuracy of Your Predictions

The line scattered through the chart is called a regression line. It runs roughly through the middle of all your completed issues. The slope of the line indicates the correlation between your predicted time and the actual time you needed to finish your work.

Track Your On-Time Delivery Ratio

The ‘On-Time Delivery’ widget displays the percentage of times that you managed to deliver before your due date approached. It also visualizes how your due date performance trends have been moving over time.

Pro Tip

The most important part of assessing your due date performance is tracking whether your work has been delivered on time. If the percentage is quite low, this denotes that your initial predictions are not reliable. If that’s the case, consider using your past performance data to perform your forecasts with the Cycle Time Scatterplot for Jira.
