Working with control chart
The control chart is a measurement criterion to determine if the process/data under analysis will produce the desired result in future. By examining the data over a period of time, we can analyze if it is running at a sustainable pace or not. By looking at huge variations in the data, we will be able to decide if we need to introspect the process or flow, or not.
To access the control chart, go to your team board, click on the Report link and select Control Chart.

The cycle time for an issue represents how much time it spends in a particular state...
