You can track project metrics directly in your action list.

  • Choose how to track the metrics

    You can track metrics manually or with TeamGuru metrics (the metric values are then displayed here automatically). You can use both options at the same time. Please note that Baseline and Plan are manually entered, optional fields. Select the rest of the settings: period, metrics, org. unit, etc.

  • See the metrics in the action list

    Once your project metrics are set up, the action list shows a metric table (for manually tracked metrics) or a mini dashboard (for TeamGuru metrics).

TeamGuru metrics can be collected in the Metric Dashboards module and are then displayed in your project automatically.

Metric values can also be entered in your action list only. These values are then stored in the TeamGuru database, so you can build a metric dashboard from them at any time in the future.

If the values are collected both in a metric dashboard and in the action list, changes are automatically reflected in both documents.
