The Kanban Team velocity calculation in Forecast is confusing

    • 2
    • Severity 3 - Minor
    • No

      Issue Summary

      Kanban teams don't have sprints so the velocity should not be calculated as for agile teams.
      Kanban teams have throughput, but throughput is calculated differently, and treated differently in the Forecast than it is in the Program Board (mainly because Jira Align is treating throughput as velocity, even though they are different fields).

      Steps to Reproduce

      N/A

      Expected Results

      To be determined by the Product Manager.

      Actual Results

      In the forecast, the throughput is calculated like this: anchor sprints x number of stories accepted in the past 5 weeks.

      In the program room, throughput is calculated like this: number of weeks in a PI x number of stories accepted in the past 5 weeks.

      Workaround

      Currently, there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
