Hello all!
Some time ago, I had a requirement to include old tasks.
There was a need to provide the real date time that the tasks were actually demanded.
In Kanboard the demand is equals to creation date. It is from where you can calculate your lead time.
If that demand was one week ago and you created a task today, of course you will lose the metrics that will be pulled from the system. (We collect metrics from Kanboard).
So, I have coded a plugin that provides an approach to include “old tasks”.
Of course, that changing the task creation dates is a procedure that requires attention, responsibility, sincerity and respect for the team involved, as it will directly interfere the project’s flow metrics.
This plugin is available at my github repo:
Everything you need to install and regarding documentation is over there.
Soon I will open others two plugins (repos) that I have coded and publish material about how to code plugins.
I would love to get any feedback.
