Using Sprint Points

Sprint Points help you manage your team's workload capacity by setting a points system using any number pattern. They also give you the ability to roll up points from subtasks and assign separate points to each assignee.

Use Sprint Points with the Sprints ClickApp or for resource management in Timeline view. This lets you track individual capacity for quick task delegation.

Enable the Sprint Points ClickApp

To enable Sprint Points for your Workspace:

  1. Click on the avatar in the lower-left corner.

  2. Select ClickApps.

  3. Search for Sprint Points and click the toggle to turn it on.

  4. Choose the Sprint Point values that you would like.

    • Tip: It's common to use linear values (1,2,4,8) or Fibonacci (1,2,3,5,8).

  5. Choose additional settings:

    • Rollup Sprint Points: Display the combined total of points from both the parent task and any subtasks.

    • Points per Assignee: Enable to ability to assign different points to individual assignees when using the Multiple Assignees ClickApp.

      • Note: If using Multiple Assignees, the point total displayed for each task will be the sum of points assigned for each assignee.
