RTC and Team Planning
We are in the face of introducing RTC in our environment. In the situation where we are offering SCRUM template to a particular development team, like any other large organisation we always have to face the long term planning/commitment aspect as well.
Can anyone of you share us any hints, that would enable to us have a velocity based planning (projection) for a scrum team in RTC?
We would like to know whether such a possibility is existing in RTC or not? If yes, how to use it.
Scenario:
Scrum team with backlog of stories
All stories in the backlog has a story point assigned (estimation)
All stories are also Ranked
Output expected:
A projection for a story in the backlog, which tells approximately when this story can be delivered by the team
Can be in a dashboard or any other report
Assumption:
Team velocity is available from the past iterations (or using team capacity and allocation)
Thank you very much.

Just keep in mind you may have to customize the RTC instance based on your needs. This is documented throughout jazz.net and the information center as well.

Thanks for that answer, but does not really address the forecasting part.
Just giving an input iteration and get a chart for how many story points are closed is pretty straight forward.
The request is, if I have a TEAM backlog as input, can I know when a particular story will be delivered in future. Any algorithm behind is fine to start with.
