Reporting

Reporting overview

EasyBoards® allows to rapidly access to reporting related to Kanban use. Reports are launched from the Reports command available in each board (so from the boards).

The available reports are:

• Work in Progress
• Lead Time
• Throughput
• Issues
• Flow Efficiency
• Quality
• Due Date Performance

Other reports will be added in future.

Work in Progress

This report shows the Work in Progress for the board. It briefly shows the cumulative trends of committed (work that has to be done) and delivered (work completed) cards. The difference is the work in progress that, in a Kanban system, should be limited and controlled.

Work in progress at a certain date is determined considering statistical information of cards (Commitment Point, Work in Progress, Delivery Point). Statistical information can be viewed in the Statics form of a card, see Cards details and settings for more details. They are automatically set by the system when a card is moved in lanes, based on lanes settings, see Options form details in Lanes settings. For example, when a card is moved to a lane labelled as "Commitment Point", the card Commitment Point date and time is set accordingly. However, they can also be manually edited in card by board members with the required privilege.

Cards can be filtered in the report considering card Priority.

Lead Time

Lead time is the time elapsed between the Delivery Point date time and Commitment Point date time set in the card. This time is calculated considering working hours only if the working calendar is set, see Working Calendar for more information.

In the report:

• a dot is printed per period, being the average lead time of all the cards completed in that period;
• a dot is printed for each selected Priority.
