Flow Demand Page
- David O'Donoghue
The purpose of the Flow demand page is to emphasize the work that is consuming the time and effort of your team. It aids in comprehending the type of work that your team is dedicating itself to. This is achieved through various graphs, each providing a unique perspective and insight into the demands placed on the team.
Throughput Graph: The graph illustrates the total number of completed items based on issue type, offering valuable insights into work demand. It reveals where your efforts are being allocated. By effectively categorizing work using meaningful issue types, you can gain a clearer understanding of the tasks that require the most attention from your team. Please note that only completed items retrieved by the query are represented in this graph.
Cycle Time: The Cycle Time graph provides valuable insights into time investment. Unlike the Throughput graph that focused on quantity of issues, this visualisation focuses on the time taken to complete items. It displays the percentage of cycle time allocated to each issue type, allowing you to identify how time is distributed across different tasks. This graph effectively pinpoints areas where time is being utilized.
Throughput Distribution: The graph illustrates the number of items completed weekly based on issue type. The figures are presented as a percentage of total completions for each week. This analysis aids in comprehending the trends in delivery investments over time.
In Flow Distribution: This graph simply shows what is in flow at the time the query was executed. It indicates your current level of delivery investment by type.
