  • 1.  Is there an App like the Milestone Cumulative Flow, but more robust?

    Posted May 22, 2019 11:12 AM

    I'm looking for a better view for milestone cumulative flow that doesn't go off the creation date for start, but instead finds the first instance of 'in-progress' to start.  I'm having LONG tails because an item/defect was 'created' on 4/15/2015, even though work was never in-progress until 12/18/2018.

     

    This causes the cumulative flow chart to have a long tail to the left since it uses the creation date to start the chart.

    Hi Stacy,

     

    I'm not aware of anything like that that's already available, however the source code for MCF is available here: https://github.com/RallyCommunity/MilestoneCumulativeFlow/blob/master/deploy/App-uncompressed.html

     

    It might be possible to modify it so that it meets your requirements

    Adding to this a bit, it would likely be a modification to the _getStoreConfig function:

        _getStoreConfig: function () {
            return {
                find: {
                    _TypeHierarchy: { '$in': [ 'HierarchicalRequirement'] },
                    _ItemHierarchy: { '$in': _.invoke(this.piRecords, 'getId')},
                    _ProjectHierarchy: { '$in': Ext.Array.from(this.down('checkboxgroup').getValue().project)}
                },
                fetch: ['ScheduleState', 'PlanEstimate', 'PortfolioItem', 'LeafStoryPlanEstimateTotal', 'State'],
                hydrate: ['ScheduleState', 'State'],
                sort: {
                    _ValidFrom: 1
                },
                context: this.getContext().getDataContext(),
                limit: Infinity
            };

     

    This is Lookback API (https://rally1.rallydev.com/analytics/doc/#/manual) so you'd want to likely modify the "find" attribute and add something that references _PreviousValues.ScheduleState

     

    The following article discusses a similar method:

    https://comm.support.ca.com/kb/rally-lookback-api-how-to-find-user-stories-that-entered-in-progress-state/kb000129467

     

    So it might look something like:

    _PreviousValues.ScheduleState: {"$ne":"In-Progress"}
