Introducing: Momentum

All plans and epics in Socratic now have a new layer of intelligence: Momentum. The aim of momentum is to show you at a glance what work is moving, versus stalling or regressing. Momentum complements the progress bar by showing how progress has changed with the latest work activity.

The momentums states are:

• Arrow up: Progress increased from X% to Y% since the last activity date.

• Arrow down: Progress decreased from Y% to X% since since the last activity date.

  • How can progress decrease? Typically because new demand exceeded the delivered work over the period change.

• Arrow flat: Progress is flat since the last activity date.

• "Scoping": No work yet completed.

• Clock + days: No activity for the period indicated (minimum seven days).

Fixes & enhancements
