Cycle time variation report

How to read the cycle time variation report?

1. X-axis denotes the end dates of the items by week.
   
2. Y-axis denotes the cycle time of the items that were completed.
   
3. Maximum, minimum, and average cycle times are represented as individual lines.

Example

Let's assume you have multiple items in your kanban backlog and board. The cycle time is the time from when an item is created in the backlog or on the board to the time it is moved to the final status to denote completion. Using this report, you will be able to view the maximum amount of duration and minimum amount of duration taken for item completion. Along with these, the average duration for the selected date rage is also generated in the report.

For instance, if you have 10 items, with maximum cycle time of 20 days and minimum cycle time of 9 days, your average cycle time is 13 days and 8 hours.

Insights
