Percentage (Number) of Open or Closed Tasks with High, Normal and Low Priority

Percentage (Number) of Open or Closed Tasks with High, Normal and Low Priority

This key performance indicator shows the allotment (percentage or number) of tasks in opened or closed status against task priority: High, Normal and Low. Using this KPI you can measure the percentage and number of tasks with six combinations "Status-Priority":
• Status "Open" – Priority "High"
• Status "Open" – Priority "Normal"
• Status "Open" – Priority "Low"
• Status "Closed" – Priority "High"
• Status "Closed" – Priority "Normal"
• Status "Closed" – Priority "Low"

This KPI helps to estimate the scope of work that has been already done and what you are still off to do. It also provides better understanding how to set task priorities for future tasks.

If you need to calculate the percentage (number) of open or closed tasks with high, normal and low priority, please follow the steps below:

• Create your own workflow that would include statuses for open and closed tasks. As the example, your workflow may be based on the following statuses: in Progress – Overdue - Complete
