The grey 'commited' bar is not showing for Sprint via Velocity chart

Summary

The grey 'committed' bar is not showing for Sprint via Velocity chart, even after adding the estimation.

Environment

Jira Cloud

Cause

Please check the sprint and you will be noticed that all the issues displayed were added after the sprint start.

  • That's indicated by the asterisk * symbol next to the issues in the list

Solution

The committed value will only count towards estimations that were present when the sprint started. Hence you see no committed values for that sprint in particular. The completion will consider all issues that were completed during the sprint despite them being added before or after the sprint start though.

Currently, you would need to transition all issues back, reopen or create a new sprint and then make sure to start the sprint with all estimations. But then that would also modify all the dates.
