# Team planning buckets

In the Team Backlog module, use planning buckets to assign items and tasks to team members. During the sprint, view team member progress.

In this topic:

## Overview

View the team planning buckets in the Team pane to the right of the Team Backlog.

The buckets display information for all sprints or a selected sprint in the release. Each bucket represents one member of your team.

Each team member bucket displays the following:

- The total number of items assigned, including the number of story points

- Number of items still in progress

- The total amount of task hours marked as complete (green) and in progress (blue)

Tip: Click the team member name in a bucket to show their items in the grid.

## Calculate the sprint capacity

In the team member buckets, the team member's progress and capacity are displayed in hours. Each team member is assumed to work 6 hours per day. Update the timing on the Members tab of the Team settings. The total capacity for a sprint is the daily capacity times multiplied by the number of working days in a sprint.

If the bucket does not display the expected results, check if:

- The team member has capacity defined.

- You assigned the item to the correct owner.

- You assigned story points to the item.

- You added tasks to the item.

- You assigned tasks to the correct owner.

- You estimated hours for the item's tasks.
