How to calculate the Cycle Time with Time In Status Reports

Configuring Status Groups

Grouped statuses allow you to categorize multiple statuses into broader groups. This helps in simplifying the tracking of issues as they transition through various phases. To configure these groups:

• 1. Click on Add Group.
  2. Name your group (e.g., “Cycle Time”, “Lead Time”, etc.).
  3. Select the statuses that belong to each group, e.g., “Cycle Time” might include statuses like “Development”, “Testing”, “Review”, and “Deployment
