PERF allows to include and exclude sub-items from metrics calculation. This can be helpful if you need calculate metrics for a project duration/release and sub-items estimation and quantity is no object in this case.

  • If

    the sub

    "Include sub-items

    included

    into calculation" turned on then task estimates and their quantity will be taken into account while calculating metrics (it mostly

    affects 

    affects Productivity  & Scope and Backlog metrics).

  • If

    the sub

    "Include sub-items

    included

    into calculation" turned off then tasks are not included into the calculation in items at all but estimates are summarized in

    most 

    most Productivity metrics.

To including/excluding sub-items in calculation go to Project ConfigurationTask Tracking Systems (Jira, Rally, TFS/VSTS)Workflow.

Info

Sub-item is a sub-bug or a sub-task.

What is considered as a sub-item depends on a Task Tracking System:

  • JIRA sub-items: sub-issues per native JIRA terminology;

  • RALLY sub-items: Tasks (in rally tasks are always children of Story or Defect);

  • TFS/VSTS sub-items: child items of ANY parents except Feature or Epic.

Example if Include sub items checkbox affects calculation:

Given:

Story 1 with estimate 5 SP

Story has 2 sub tasks: 

  • Sub task 1 with estimate 20h

  • Sub task 2 with estimate 5h

UoM

Sub-items OFF

Sub-items ON

Item

Number of parent issues:  1

Number of parent issues + number of sub issues: 1+2=3

Story point

SP for parent issues: 5

SP for parent issues  + SP for sub issues: 5+0+0=5

Hours

Hours for parent issues: 0

Hours for parent issues  + Hours for sub issues=0+20+5=25
