Matrix Report

A Matrix report allows to group and summarize data by both rows and columns.

Matrix report uses two or more Dimensions (non-numeric and dates fields) in Row Fields and Column fields to group data. The summary/aggregation calculation is performed on Measures (numeric fields) that are added to Data fields. This type of report resembles a pivot table created in Excel.

Steps to create Matrix Report

1. In the Report Designer interface, select the type of report as Matrix

2. Add the fields from the left panel by clicking the down arrow sign next to the field name. For Dimensions (non-numeric and dates fields), the down arrow will give an option to add the field to either Row or Column fields. Fields can be dragged to rearrange the order

3. Specify a filter criteria to search for issues, using a JQL statement, Jira Favorite Filter or using Reports Custom Filter builder

4. Click Run to view the results in the bottom pane

5. Click Save to save the report for future use. Saved reports can be accessed via My Area → My Reports
