WIP Aging Charts

Display Settings & Export

Control the chart display, switch to a data table view, and export your WIP aging data.

Data Table View

Switch from the scatter plot to a tabular list of all WIP items with their age details.

  • Toggle the view using the Chart / Table switcher in the gadget header
  • Enable "Open table view by default" in Display Settings so the gadget always starts in table mode

The data table is useful for:

  • Sharing exact age numbers with stakeholders
  • Exporting specific items for follow-up
  • Reviewing items without the scatter plot visual

Common Use Cases

Daily Standup Review

Set the threshold to your team's SLA (e.g., 10 days). Open the chart at standup - any dot past the line needs a conversation. No sorting or filtering required.

Kanban SLE Tracking

Enable the 85th percentile line. The line value is your team's SLE: "85% of our work completes within X days." Share this number with stakeholders as a data-driven commitment.

Sprint Retrospective

Run the WIP Aging report at the end of a sprint. Issues with high age that did not complete are candidates for retrospective discussion - were they blocked? Under-specified? Too large?

SLA Breach Prevention

Set the threshold at your SLA boundary. Run the chart daily and escalate any dot past the line before it becomes a formal breach.
