Understanding how work items progress through your Jira workflows helps you identify bottlenecks, monitor team performance, and improve delivery efficiency.
Time in Status provides a comprehensive set of reports to analyze how long work items spend in each status, how work is distributed among assignees, and how transitions affect workflow progress.
Time in Status offers three categories of reports, each providing a different perspective on your Jira workflows.
Status Reports help you understand how work items move through your workflow and how much time they spend in each status.
Available reports include:
Use these reports to identify statuses where work accumulates, investigate delays, and understand how efficiently work items move through your process.
Assignee Reports help you analyze how work is distributed across team members and how long work items remain assigned to each person.
Available reports include:
These reports help you understand assignment patterns, identify frequent handoffs, and evaluate how work is distributed across your team.
Transition Reports provide detailed insights into changes in status and assignment history. They help you understand when transitions occur, how frequently work items change states, and how work moves between team members.
Available reports include:
Use these reports to investigate workflow history, review reassignment patterns, measure transition durations, and better understand how work progresses through your Jira processes.
Time in Status reports are available in two display formats: Table View and Chart View. Each format helps you explore the same reporting data from a different perspective.
Table View presents report results in rows and columns, making it easier to examine individual work items and compare exact values.
Use Table View when you need to:
Table View is particularly useful for Jira administrators, project managers, analysts, and QA teams who need detailed information to investigate specific cases or evaluate workflow performance.
Chart View transforms report data into visual representations, helping you recognize patterns and communicate findings more effectively.
Depending on the selected report, available visualizations can include bar charts, pie charts, and trend lines.
Use Chart View to:
Chart View is ideal for team leads, project managers, and stakeholders who need a clear overview of workflow performance without reviewing every data row.
Choose Table View when you need precise values, detailed investigation, or structured data for export. Choose Chart View when you want to identify trends, compare results visually, or communicate key findings to stakeholders.
Pro tip: Combine both views for a more complete analysis. Start with Chart View to identify unusual patterns or potential bottlenecks, then switch to Table View to examine the underlying work items and investigate the details.
Time in Status reports help you understand how work progresses through your Jira projects by bringing together status duration, assignee activity, and transition history.
Whether you want to identify bottlenecks, understand workload distribution, investigate workflow changes, or monitor performance over time, these reports provide the visibility you need to make more informed decisions.
Install Time in Status and start analyzing workflow performance, tracking assignment history, and identifying opportunities to improve efficiency across your Jira projects.
