Reporting on Programs

[Stef]

We're attempting to use Programs as a way of creating a release plan
document. We have 4 different sub-products that are all planned and
tracked separately, but what we show to the customer is a single high
level product version that contains the features developed in those
sub-products. We created a program to represent that high level
product version and assigned the necessary sub-product versions. As
far as we could tell, the Program Dashboard, Program Summary, and
Program Quicklist does not display the stories that are associated
with the selected projects in the Program.

The Program Scope Change report displays any story that has been added/
removed or changed, but I do not think this will be a reliable way to
get the information we need since this is a document produced at the
end of a release planning session, prior to sprint planning.

I tried using the reporting API but cannot find a way to pull stories
by Program.

Please let me know what our options are or if I'm missing something.

Thanks!!

Stef,

The Program reporting is limited so there are a few ways to accomplish
what you need...list of all stories in a program:

1) For each project under the program, run a Backlog item quick list
and then export each one to a spread sheet (combine them into one post
export)

2) Run queries through the api (and apply a style sheet you prefer)
that list all stories for each Project (Scope.Name)...here's an
example query

http://localhost/VersionOne/rest-1.v1/Data/Story?Where=Scope.Name='Release%201.0'

Hope this helps!

With the Winter '09 release you can now use the Program Filter to list
all the stories in a program on the Product Backlog or Backlog Item
quicklist

Here's a link to the release notes for more details:
