Meet the new BigPicture navigation
A faster, smarter, and more intuitive way to work is here. We’ve redesigned BigPicture navigation to give you a smoother experience and better access to what matters most.
→ Discover what’s new, explore key improvements, and review feature name updates on the New navigation page.
→ The rollout will happen gradually, and the previous navigation will be retired in September 2026.
Story points (Effort mode)
Story points (Effort mode) (old navigation)
The Capacity and Remaining Capacity of your entire team or individual team members, expressed in time units, can be converted into story points.
Configuration
Box admins can configure the Story point conversion ratio. See the Workload-related settings page.
Story point conversion
When you enable this mode, the capacities are converted from time units to story points. The story point estimation is evenly distributed over the duration period: For example, BPV-12 was estimated as 7 SP for the duration of 2d, so the result is 7/2=3.5 SP/d.
Warnings
You can enable Warnings to help you with identifying tasks without the Story Point estimate. If the Task has no Story Points, the warning will be triggered.
Show overall assignment in Story points mode
When the "Show overall assignment" (Enterprise feature) is enabled, the capacities may be misleading. This is due to the planning process using the Board module, as the Team and individual capacities can be overwritten using the Capacity planning, in which case the capacities calculated in the Resources module will not be updated.
