Points

Points are units of measure for expressing an estimate of the overall effort required to complete a piece of work. With this feature, you can estimate tasks as a story points, man-days or another metric. It could be very useful for organizing your workday. 

Each Team member can enable or disable Addons at any time.


There are a few ways to enable the Points feature.

1. Project view

The first way is to turn on the Addon in a specific project view. To do that navigate to the target project and click on the "puzzle" icon in the upper-right corner. 


Next, find the Points feature on the list and click on the switch button to turn it on.

 By default, this feature will be added to all projects. You can turn it off by navigating to the specific project or editing it in the Addons settings view.


2. Addons settings

The second way is to enable the Points addon for specific projects only. 

Depending on your account role open Workspace settings or Profile settings and navigate to the Addons tab or simply choose the Integrations option from the list under your profile icon.


Next, find the Points module and click on the Add to Planner button. By default, this feature will be added to all projects.


A "3 vertical dots" button will appear next to the Points module. After you click on it you can select if Points should be added to all projects or only to specific ones.


Once the Points feature is enabled a "point" icon will appear next to all your tasks. Each user can click on it and input the estimated point value.
