Timebox schedules

The timebox schedule (TS) feature helps standardize planning across teams working in recurring cycles, like sprints, program increments, or quarters. It's especially useful for organizations following Agile, SAFe, or similar frameworks, where consistent time-based structures are key. But it can also be utilized by organizations working in classic frameworks like Waterfall to visualize fiscal years or quarters on the timeline. To learn more, see the https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DLP/pages/1989148938 page.

With timebox schedules, you can:

  • Define a timebox schedule with multiple levels and sequential dates.

  • Apply schedules to multiple boxes.

  • Ensure the same timebox structure across multiple projects, with a single place to manage those timeboxes.

Additionally, for each timebox schedule, you can perform the following actions:

  • Change the TS name

  • Add or change a description

  • Add or remove global teams

  • Remove boxes associated with the selected TS

7pace Timetracker for Jira integration

7pace Timetracker for Jira is a streamlined, intuitive time-tracking app for recording, managing, and reporting time. Designed to support managers and individual contributors, it simplifies time-tracking tasks across the board.

Add 7pace Timetracker columns to break down logged time by person or category (e.g., billable hours). Easily compare time spent against individual capacity in 7pace’s Times Explorer to monitor workload. This integration offers detailed visibility into effort distribution and helps align time tracking with resource planning.
