In the Committed Vs Completed metric, the “complete” series is replaced by two series: “Complete” and “Complete after target”. This allows the user to distinguish between scope completed on time vs late for items such as sprints which have an end date.

September 1 , 2021
Advanced Filtering on Metrics views to allow user to:
Excludes tickets that were moved to a “Won’t Do” done state from your velocity so you can see exactly what your team shipped.
Narrows the Created vs. Completed metric down to bugs of a certain severity so you can see whether your team is creating more or fewer significant bugs over time.
Excludes subtasks from metrics to hone in on the increments of value to customers.
Update to the Velocity metric to give credit to all users who were assigned that ticket.
If developer Bettina and QA engineer Miguel were both assigned to a ticket, when that ticket is completed then both of Bettina and Miguel are credited with having done that work.
This change is visible in velocity metrics where the x axis or series is by contributor. In other velocity metrics, items worked on by multiple assignees will continue to show up as one unit in the chart.
Exclude issues that skip all work statuses in Cycle Time Metrics.
If an item jumps directly from To Do to Done then it is not counted in the cycle time average, as the item's cycle time would be zero and throw off averages.
