Burndown Chart

A Burndown Chart is used to add a burndown chart to a page in the application.

Overview

The Burndown Chart widget is configured from the Module Designer. Select a module (or add a new one), then add a tab into which a burndown chart can be added.

 

Configuring a burndown chart from the Module Designer

Properties for the widget can be set on the left-side under Properties.

When the burndown appears in a tab in Agile On Demand, you must first select the correct interval (product, release, team, or sprint). In this case, the burndown chart was configured for a release. Once a release is selected, the burndown chart will be available.
