RICE is an acronym for the four factors that are used to evaluate each project idea: reach, impact, confidence and effort.

RICE = (Reach * Impact * Confidence) / Effort

Setup

RICE extension enables a calculated field for computing and storing the RICE score on your work items.

  1. The first thing you need is to create the field that will store the RICE value. Create a custom decimal field through the process hub and add it to the work items you want to display it.

Create a custom decimal field

  1. Navigate to the "RICE" hub on the collection settings admin experience. From here, you must specify the fields that will be used for Reach, Impact, Confidence, Effort and RICE Score.
