Historical Reporting

The new Daily History Chart extends Mingle's reporting to include your project’s automatically generated historical data.

• Create burn-up and burn-down charts using historical data.
• Objective historical reporting provides both team members and management with information about project metrics and trends, allowing teams to evolve their processes and improve as well as improving visibility and traceability.
• The use of Mingle’s automatically generated history means that users do not have to create extra reporting properties to capture history.

Support for Third-party Applications
