The work item metrics section displays total work items with state-based breakdown, showing started, backlog, unstarted, and completed counts to give you a complete picture of your team's workload distribution. The created vs resolved trend analysis tracks progress over time, while velocity and completion rate tracking helps you understand team performance patterns.
Scope provides a summary of your team's bandwidth. Here, you'll find the total number of **`Backlog`**, **`Unstarted`**, and **`Started`** work items assigned to each member of your Workspace or Project.

The interactive chart builder offers flexible measure options including work item count and estimate points, allowing you to focus on the metrics that matter most to your team. Dimension analysis capabilities cover state name, state group, priority, label, assignee, estimate point, and cycle, providing multiple perspectives on your data.

Upon accessing Custom Analytics, three distinct properties will greet you - **`Measure`**, **`Dimension`**, and **`Group`**.
**Measure:**The foundation of Plane is built upon Work items, and the Measure property echoes this centrality. This property consists of two attributes: **`Work item Count`** and **`Estimate`**. These attributes form the Y-axis of your chart.
61
+
The module overview section displays total module count across all projects with detailed status distribution covering completed, in progress, planned, and paused modules. Module progress visualization includes scatter plots with completion percentages to help you understand development velocity and identify potential delays.

**Dimension:** This property is where you can utilize all the work item properties to derive insights based on the chosen Measure. The following attributes are currently supported:
63
+
Individual module tracking provides detailed information including lead assignment and responsibility mapping, project-wise module distribution for cross-project visibility, and progress percentage analysis with timeline tracking.
Each attribute in the Dimension property aids in understanding the Measure property from a different perspective, offering detailed analysis based on the selected attribute.
68
+
The intake metrics section tracks total intake items with status breakdown, monitoring accepted, declined, and duplicate requests to help you understand demand patterns.
68
69

-
**Group:** The Group property enables you to delve deeper into your insights by constructing stacked bar charts. It's important to note that although the same attributes are sourced from the Dimension property, any selected attribute in the Group property will disappear from the Dimension property. This offers a way to further categorize and understand the data in your Dimension attribute, creating a more layered insight into your work.
70
+
Trend analysis capabilities include historical intake pattern recognition that reveals seasonal variations and cyclical demand, acceptance rate monitoring to understand how well requests align with team capacity, and project-wise intake distribution analysis.

Users can have both types of access simultaneously. When this happens, Plane automatically applies whichever role gives them higher permissions. For example, if someone is a `Guest` on your project but joins a linked teamspace, they're automatically upgraded to `Member` access. If they're already an `Admin`, they keep their `Admin` role.
