Velocity, Visibility, and Smarter Linking — A Power Release for Teams
New Features
- Velocity Chart Redesign: Replaced the dual points and tasks charts with a single stacked Chart.js chart featuring a Points/Tasks unit toggle and a unified tooltip showing Committed, Completed, and Incomplete in both units simultaneously. A 4-month windowing system with previous/next controls anchors to the most recent sprint, available on both the Scrum detail view and the Sprint Velocity report.
- Perpetual Task–Ticket Linking: Introduced a full lifecycle linking system between Tickets and perpetual task templates. Links progress through scheduled, active, consumed, and cancelled states, with auto-resolution when all links reach a terminal state with at least one consumed. New UI surfaces include a Link Perpetual Task button and modal on Ticket Detail, a Scheduled status pill and filter in the Ticket Queue, an orange ticket icon with count badge on the Perpetual Board, an Active Linked Tickets section in the WI Edit Modal, and a Template Detail page with Active, Scheduled, Expired, and History sections.
- Comparison Report: Added a 6-step wizard-driven Comparison Report supporting Mode A (trend) and Mode B (peer) analysis with Chart.js visualizations, drill-down capability, saved views, and CSV export.
Feature Updates
- Services & Company External API: Added external API endpoints for Services (GET list, POST create) and Companies (POST create, POST update/append) with granular permission flags.
- QuickBase Field Visibility Gating: All QuickBase-related fields — Project ID, Task ID, Ticket ID, QB Record ID, and Service Key — are now hidden across work item forms, board cards, admin tables, and time card modals when QuickBase is disabled in tenant settings.
Feature Enhancements
- Velocity Snapshot Lifecycle Hooks: Sprint lifecycle actions (activate, archive, move incomplete) now write snapshots at the moment of transition, closing a previous gap where archiving without a successor never snapshotted and where stale backfill snapshots survived later transitions. Committed credits carried-over items to the originating sprint; Completed counts only items currently on the sprint to prevent double-crediting.
- Pro-Only Feature Gating Service: Added a tier_features service for gating Pro-only features, providing a centralized control point for plan-level feature enforcement.
