Improvements for Planning on Mendix

1

Hi,

Here are some ideas to improve this part:

 

  1. Add an option to assign multiple tasks to the same person.

  2. Include an Hours field to calculate the cost of a task.

  3. Implement finite capacity: allow configuration of sprint length and daily working hours to correctly calculate sprint capacity. In addition, add a field such as percentage of time off to calculate both the maximum sprint time and the expected sprint time.

    • Formula: Maximum sprint time – (Percentage of time off) = Expected sprint time

More easy-to-implement but really helpful ideas:

 

  • Add the possibility in the Datagrid2 of 'Planning' to switch to 'Row click', and adjust the 'Toggle on click' and 'Keep selection' options.

 

  • Allow assigning the same person to a task at the same time (similar to epics).

Hi Juan!

 

Excellent topic.

I would also add:

  1. Add the logic on point 3. you mentioned but for Story points (as many teams manage the Sprint based on Story Points and not working hours);
  2. Include a User Story dependencies to other User Stories;
  3. It would also be great to add custom fields to the User Stories per project/app.

 

Regards,

Daniel
