About Time Series

Time series are collections of data points based on your issues’ date fields. For instance, they show the number of created issues on day days 1, 2, 3, and so on , for the past month. The values for the data points may be issue counts or values computed from issue fields. 

The time series can be displayed as line charts with the Rich Filter Time Series Chart gadget , or as tables with the Rich Filter Statistics gadget.  Series While series on their own can point out trends; but, they are more powerful when plotted together. Comparing series can hint at correlations between events affecting your activity.Image Removed

cannot be changed anymore:

the
  • The Series date field;

the
  • Value Type:

this means that if
  • If you have selected Issue Count as the value, you cannot change it. If you had selected, for example, a number field as the value, then the value type would be Numeric Sum. You could then update the Value and select another number field, but you could

nod

Count

Counts or on Numeric Sum values but not combinations of these).
