create new reports

How can I create new reports on Jira?

[Meg Holbrook]

EasyBI is not so easy for beginner users, but if you are more advanced in report creation, certainly a good option. 

I find that users who need an easy to use interface and options, with the flexibility of adding JQL queries, All-in-one reports is a good alternative.

Hi @Francisco Yago,

Welcome to this community :)

You can find in the marketplace a great plugin for this purpose EasyBI.

Cheers,

Adrián.

Hi,

eazyBI is a powerful visualization and analysis add-on for Jira Server and Jira Cloud. With eazyBI you can create custom Jira reports, charts, and dashboards with an easy-to-use drag-and-drop interface. You can visualize your data using many interactive chart types. Analyze data from Jira Software or Jira Service Desk standard or custom fields. Identify opportunities, challenges, risks, and trends. Add custom calculations or import data from most popular 3rd party add-ons like Tempo Timesheets, Zephyr, Xray, and others. Add and merge data from external data sources like SQL databases, REST API, CSV, and Exel spreadsheets.

Please find some sample reports on eazyBI demo account:

Depending on what kind of reports you are looking for, you might want to use different solutions.

We are a vendor on the Marketplace, so we can explain how our apps could help you.

The first challenge is data access: We provide the SQL for Jira Driver for that. It resolves most of the limitations of the JQL language by using SQL working together.

The second stage is data visualization: We provide the Eclipse BIRT for Jira app that allows creating advanced visualizations for your SQL+JQL queries (and combine any third data source in the same report too).

Both apps bring you an incredible flexibility to report anything, but they require some expertise (SQL, BIRT, ...). Not as easy as Dataplane nor it brings a lot of predefined reports, but it brings an unparalleled flexibility to build advanced reports: report anything in your own way without too many limits.

A totally different approach: the Analytics Client - Business Intelligence app allows analyzing and measuring your business data in a very quick way without requiring any configuration. It is a very quick way to get results immediately. It measures any issue field with drag  & drop on a pivot tablet with some charts.

Not as powerful as eazyBI, but a lot easier to get it working.

The question is overly general, and there is a whole category of apps dedicated to Jira reporting.

Browse the options at Atlassian Marketplace.

What kind of reports do you need? There are some basic reports included in plain Jira without any plugin. Or maybe a dashboard with the data is suitable for you.

Could you please explain a little bit more, what kind of report do you need?

[Francisco Yago]

I am thinking about something flexible, like a Qlik dashboard with the main figures to track

[Thomas Schlegel]

Try a Jira-Dashboard and gadgets. If you get enough overview information from this, fine.  

If this is not enough, try a reporting plugin like easyBI or any other reporting app from the Marketplace:

We don't use any of these, so unfortunately, I can't give you a recommendation.

If you are looking for something flexible as Qlik, I think you will find interesting the Rainier's review of Eclipse BIRT as he compares BIRT with Crystal reports...
