Creating charts using date fields
Creating charts using date fields
You can track work based on any date fields, such as start date or due date, or by any of your custom date fields. When creating a custom chart, you can pick a date field instead of a workflow state as the primary filter for your chart. That lets you track how many items were completed based on manually set completion dates.

Tracking completions based on Date completed
Let's assume you have a custom date field Date completed on your board. You can create a chart that shows how many items have the date in the past by selecting by Date completed as the metric for the chart.
That will work the same way as if you had selected Completed (within date range), except that it will only look at the value in the date field. If the date is in the past, it is considered completed, regardless of the workflow state of that item. It is an alternative way of tracking work completions.
Here's the resulting chart:

Tracking custom units by date
You can track any unit, such as Total page views, by any date fields. Like previously, you can pick a unit from the Unit menu:
In this example, I have selected Total page views as the unit for the chart. Here's the resulting chart:
Any of your number fields can be used as a unit in the charts. You can also map your drop down fields as units in the custom fields mapping. You can learn more from this guide.
