Tab 1: Contains the Agile Sprint burn down chart table of points burned for a particular Sprint. The Sprint shown is a 2-week duration (probably the most typical duration for a Sprint). Amend this for Sprint length and add the context of the tasks and points per task as appropriate. For each Sprint in the Agile project, just copy this tab and increment to next Sprint cycle and repeat.

Tab 2: The Sprint burn down chart for the table in Tab 1 above. This provides the graphical view of the Sprint in terms of forecast and actual story points burned. Copy and rename to the subsequent Sprint as required by creating a new worksheet tab.

Tab 3: The burn up table represents the forecast and actuals across the whole Agile Scrum project by story points.

Tab 4: The burn up chart for Tab 3.
