### Latest Enhancements to Elevate Your Sprint Planning
We're excited to announce some fantastic updates that will enhance your sprint planning. The Users Capacity function now provides adjustment to the team capacity per sprint.
Adjust Sprint Capacity
Enhance your sprint planning and resource management by adjusting sprint capacity. This feature allows you to increase team members' availability by modifying their work schedules, ensuring that your team can fully leverage their capabilities and maintain productivity throughout the sprint.
Adjust Individuals capacity per sprint
We’ve added the ability to tailor individual team members' capacity on a per-sprint basis. This feature allows you to account for variations in availability and optimize workload distribution effectively. By adjusting individuals' capacities, you can ensure more accurate sprint planning and delivery.
Select Individual Days Off
Gain precise control over your scheduling with the ability to select individual days off directly within your projects. This enhancement allows team members to mark specific days off on their calendar, ensuring accurate tracking and visibility of availability. Whether planning for vacations, personal days, or other commitments, this feature provides a clear and managed approach to handling time off without affecting the overall project timelines.
Select team's days off
Manage your team's workload more efficiently by selecting specific days off directly within Jira. This new functionality enables you to designate off days for each team member, ensuring accurate sprint planning and resource allocation. Adjust timelines and expectations seamlessly to accommodate holidays or personal time off, leading to more realistic project timelines and balanced workloads.
Adjust Capacity for Future Sprints
Adding flexibility to sprint planning, teams can now adjust capacity for future sprints directly within Jira. This feature enables a more tailored and dynamic planning approach, ensuring better workload distribution and resource management as project priorities shift. Update team capacity to reflect anticipated changes in availability or demand, helping you maintain project momentum and alignment with evolving goals.
Provide 80 hours default per sprint
To streamline sprint planning, we have set the default sprint duration to 80 hours. This predefined duration helps standardize sprint planning processes across teams, ensuring consistency and predictable workload distribution. Teams can still adjust the duration based on specific needs, but this new default offers a solid starting point for sprint management.
