Plan and track your work in a sprint

Sprint Drop Plan is an organizational tool that helps team members to sync their tasks by visualizing work status and dependencies on a sprint-based calendar.

Review your sprint plan

Arrange and track sprint progress

• Arrange tasks by simple drag & drop on the calendar.
• Visualize your progress by colors on the calendar.
• Highlight tasks on the same requirement by hovering on one of them.

• See when tasks are planned out of sequence (e.g., Testing before Development.)

• If you use Effort (Hours), you can see the progress of individual tasks.

• If you assign capacity to a user they will show on the calendar even if they have no tasks
• You can select to see/hide team non-working days (configured weekends/team days off)
• You can right click on a cell to add/remove it as a "Day off"
• Tasks on the plan will use the configured colour of the task, so that you can easily tell the difference between bugs/tasks/any custom task types.

Highlight tasks

• Highlight tasks with your configured status colours:
  

• Highlight tasks by their parent ticket:
  

Quick steps to get started

1. Navigate to your sprint.
2. Click on the "Drop plan" tab.
3. Start organizing your tasks.

An optional step is Configuring your project activity order in Drop Plan Settings.
Drop Plan settings are available from "Project Settings" under "Extensions".

Happy coding :-)
