Sum it up!





General overview

This App for Jira® is designed to sum up values from one issue to another one. Typical example is summing up Story points from all Sub-tasks to their parent issue (Story, Task,...). In general, you can sum any numerical values from child issues to their parent issue, but you can also sum these values based on links between the issues, or even several numbers inside one single issue. Also, as requested by many customers, you can finally create tables and sum up any statistics you wish. Main functions available are:


  • Chose any custom field and sum it in any destination field - easy as that!
  • Sum up multiple fields to a destination field in a single issue
  • Sum up values based on links between issues
  • You can sum up Time tracking values (time planned vs time spent)
  • This functionality can be switched on over all projects, or just selected ones via easy configuration
  • Create gadgets with tables on your dashboard to sum up any numbers you like (based on JQL, or saved filter)
