This page outlines the updates included in the latest release of BigPicture.

Version: 8.72


New

Financials module

Add an expense from a numbers Jira custom field

Map a custom expense to an existing Jira number-type custom field, to pull cost values directly from work items. See custom expense types in the Other Expenses section of the Financials Module to easily understand the full cost breakdown of your plan.

For example, work items could have the custom fields "Hardware spendings”, and "Software spendings". Adjust the settings of the Financials to differentiate these cost types from the already existing personnel costs in the module's charts.
