@Adam_Sabla, thanks for getting back to me. I attempted to use your burndown chart for the first time last night so I assume that’s the latest version?
It seems like you would need two custom fields on each task in your asana project. One for “Points Allocated” and another for “Points Remaining”. As a user it would be nice if I could specify the custom fields I’d like to use and not be required to use “Estimate”.
@Adam1 correct, that’s the latest at the moment (there’s only one version yet).
Yeah, it would be definitely better to be able to select which custom field you want.
It seems like you would need two custom fields on each task in your asana project. One for “Points Allocated” and another for “Points Remaining”.
I think I see your point. So you could break down each task and track progress for it. I imagine this could be great for huge tasks which take a lot of points. Hmmm, I guess it could work, but this isn’t the way we work so I’m a bit sceptical if this would make it there… Maybe you or someone else will later on we’ll see.
Hey @Adam_Sabla! Any updates on the burn down chart project? You’ve generated enthusiasm from some of the folks on my team and we’re curious if there’s anything new we should know about Thanks for your energy and for sharing something so cool with the Community!
Thanks for reaching out! I’m sorry for such a slow progress! Yes, I’m aware
My friend who was/is developing it had to put focus into something else for a while.
I didn’t pressure him as it’s kinda ‘pro bono’ thing from his side and we didn’t need the burndown that much during past weeks (we will need it more most likely in upcoming weeks).
I’ll report back as soon as I’ll have anything to report
Just wanted to let you know that we’re planning to support Asana in the near future in our analytics dashboard (http://screenful.com). Once that is released you’ll get burnup & burndown charts and more for your Asana boards. You can sign up to the early access list to be notified once the beta is available.
Great designs! If you put it on github I’d like to use this for my team so I’m open to taking a crack at if there are any fixes that need to be done. I imported everything, made a field called “Estimate” but still only see a linear graph. Feel free to let me know if you need help open sourcing it.
@Adam_Sabla What does the “Real” pull from
I have the “Estimate” field in there and it is filled in - but How does the “Real” line on the graph get pulled - Did that question make sense?
It’s been a few years since this topic first started, and reading through it and all other “burndown” related discussions, I can’t help but feel there’s a reeeaaaalllyy close solution that @Adam_Sabla mentioned in his original question:
Why can’t we choose a custom field in the Progress view?
This view’s “Insights” graph has everything we need for a useful burndown or burnup chart, it’s just missing the ability to change it from Number of Tasks to my custom “Estimated Hours Remaining” story points field. It’s soooo close!
(I’m tagging @Alexis because she seems to be a rep from Asana in this discussion )
Would be interested in hearing if there are any updates on creating burndown charts in Asana without third party plugins. @Alexis or others on this thread?
I’d love to +1 @Bridget_Ley’s question. I’m surprised that this still hasn’t been released given all the demand. I’d love to be able to graph on story points without having to download 3rd party plugins. While I’m happy you introduced the burnup chart for tasks in the Dashboard, but we use cards as stories and add ascribe points to them.
