Visual Progress
Asked by Cornel Simons:

Hi,  
We have a question about the timeline in plans (Jira). As can be seen in Figure 1, there is no visual progress is shown, while there is progress in the underlying tasks of these Epics.  
For example at Epic: "*Salesforce - KD - bulk beantwoorden van klachten* " in figure 2 you can see the progress of the underlying tasks with a visual representation, we also expected this in the column "*voortgang (aantal issues*)" figure 1 but unfortunately we are unable to display the visual progress.  
Can you help us with a solution?

This is because the child issues don't seem to be included in the Plan :). You can also see this by the lack of the \> expand icon in front of the Epics in your screenshot.

You will need to add issue sources to your plan to also include the children of these tickets, then it should work!

Please check the steps below:

1. In your Plan, click 'Plan Settings' on the left.

2. Then, choose "Issue Sources" on the left, and observe the information on the right.

ONLY the issues in the scopes of the items on the right, will be shown in the plan. So in my test environment, that would mean anything that is part of the filter that is used for the 'MOBL Cowboys' board, and anything in the 'Marketing Content' project.

In your case, you'll likely find one or two filters listed here, where the filter only contains the Epics (or at least not the places where the children might be).

So, you should either expand the filter that you're currently using, or add a new filter that includes the places where your Epic's children reside.

If you need more help, please reply here with some screenshots of your Issue Sources setup, and the details/filters of the boards/filters/projects that are in the scope.
