15 00:07:44.290 ⇒ 00:07:50.680 Uttam Kumaran: But yeah, overall things are good. So I think maybe today we can review the current sprint.

22 00:08:46.190 ⇒ 00:08:50.510 Uttam Kumaran: I’m getting a screen. Sharing has failed to start
23 00:08:51.590 ⇒ 00:08:52.600 Uttam Kumaran: for 2,
24 00:08:56.620 ⇒ 00:08:57.320 Uttam Kumaran: that
25 00:08:59.880 ⇒ 00:09:01.449 Uttam Kumaran: this is wrong
26 00:09:02.250 ⇒ 00:09:05.810 Ryan Luke Daque: seconds I was able to see it for a bit.
27 00:09:07.500 ⇒ 00:09:09.380 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, really.
28 00:09:10.520 ⇒ 00:09:12.279 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, hold on. Let me.

33 00:10:00.900 ⇒ 00:10:02.150 Ryan Luke Daque: Yep, there you go
34 00:10:03.840 ⇒ 00:10:04.530 Uttam Kumaran: cool.
35 00:10:15.070 ⇒ 00:10:29.249 Uttam Kumaran: I need to. I think I’m gonna try to get a new laptop next month, because my air is not doing great these days. Okay, so let’s go through what’s in review. So the first customer attribution table.
36 00:10:29.380 ⇒ 00:10:32.260 Uttam Kumaran: Let’s move that to dawn.
37 00:10:32.970 ⇒ 00:10:35.850 Uttam Kumaran: This is done.
38 00:10:37.150 ⇒ 00:10:39.350 Uttam Kumaran: This is done.
39 00:10:39.490 ⇒ 00:10:40.370 Ryan Luke Daque: Yeah.
40 00:10:43.000 ⇒ 00:10:45.510 Uttam Kumaran: great. So
41 00:10:45.750 ⇒ 00:10:50.400 Uttam Kumaran: this one I did and is done.
42 00:11:06.730 ⇒ 00:11:09.280 Uttam Kumaran: This one, I think we did on Monday or Tuesday.
43 00:11:10.650 ⇒ 00:11:12.970 Ryan Luke Daque: Yeah, that’s should be done.
44 00:11:16.750 ⇒ 00:11:20.790 Uttam Kumaran: Great. This one we created the first
45 00:11:20.800 ⇒ 00:11:31.060 Ryan Luke Daque: version of it. I have a couple of updates, but we can take a look. I haven’t done the year on year comparison yet.
46 00:11:31.260 ⇒ 00:11:34.290 Ryan Luke Daque: And yeah, we can also discuss like, what
47 00:11:34.910 ⇒ 00:11:39.700 Ryan Luke Daque: charts would be better for some of the visualizations there and stuff. So yeah.
48 00:11:40.040 ⇒ 00:11:42.300 Uttam Kumaran: okay? And so
49 00:11:42.410 ⇒ 00:11:46.870 Uttam Kumaran: these 2 are still on my plate.
50 00:11:47.060 ⇒ 00:11:53.900 Uttam Kumaran: Light dash validation issues. I sent them. There’s a slack thread going on between me
51 00:11:54.080 ⇒ 00:11:59.409 Uttam Kumaran: and their team, and I sent. I told them like I don’t really know how to reproduce the issue
52 00:11:59.630 ⇒ 00:12:00.760 Uttam Kumaran: frankly.
53 00:12:01.180 ⇒ 00:12:03.420 Uttam Kumaran: Because
54 00:12:03.530 ⇒ 00:12:06.630 Uttam Kumaran: I didn’t really a
55 00:12:08.040 ⇒ 00:12:12.069 Uttam Kumaran: like. I don’t even know how it really happened. so I’m not sure.
56 00:12:14.760 ⇒ 00:12:21.240 Uttam Kumaran: I’ll have to keep responding to them. So we’ll see. And I haven’t heard back about the 5 trend light connector.
57 00:12:21.760 ⇒ 00:12:26.280 Uttam Kumaran: the only thing that’s Oh, and then I
58 00:12:26.320 ⇒ 00:12:28.490 Uttam Kumaran: this is also
59 00:12:28.610 ⇒ 00:12:30.249 Uttam Kumaran: I did send this.
60 00:12:31.270 ⇒ 00:12:41.820 Uttam Kumaran: This is in progress. The only other thing that’s really, really important before Friday, that I would like is this ticket
61 00:12:42.440 ⇒ 00:12:45.679 Ryan Luke Daque: okay, I can
62 00:12:47.000 ⇒ 00:12:52.839 Ryan Luke Daque: work on that today and tomorrow, I guess, if I have time today after
63 00:12:53.040 ⇒ 00:12:55.140 Ryan Luke Daque: the refunds. Or maybe I can.
64 00:12:55.270 ⇒ 00:12:57.780 Ryan Luke Daque: Do you want me to prioritize that today?
65 00:12:58.930 ⇒ 00:13:02.649 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. So I would say, there’s there’s 2 things one is.
66 00:13:03.830 ⇒ 00:13:10.120 Uttam Kumaran: the stuff that’s coming up with the shipping and shipping items. Let’s put a pause
67 00:13:10.240 ⇒ 00:13:19.149 Uttam Kumaran: on that, for now I know that’s leading to some duplication. I wonder if, like, maybe we can measure which ones
68 00:13:19.660 ⇒ 00:13:24.300 Uttam Kumaran: like which ones are causing that, or like how how much the impact is. But
69 00:13:24.420 ⇒ 00:13:28.369 Uttam Kumaran: I want us to like kind of handle that a little bit more strategically.
70 00:13:28.500 ⇒ 00:13:34.649 Ryan Luke Daque: Because, I wanna I wanna move to creating a shipments to first table
71 00:13:34.780 ⇒ 00:13:37.610 Uttam Kumaran: and then joining everything to shipments.
72 00:13:37.890 ⇒ 00:13:49.949 Uttam Kumaran: That way, it will kind of eliminate this problem. I’m gonna take a look at some of the stuff you sent, and I’ll see if I can patch anything. But I would say, if you can continue working on
73 00:13:50.420 ⇒ 00:13:54.340 Uttam Kumaran: these fees modeling, and then any remaining time today can go to
74 00:13:54.660 ⇒ 00:13:59.059 Uttam Kumaran: continue to update for the discount dashboard. That would be perfect.
75 00:14:00.600 ⇒ 00:14:06.310 Ryan Luke Daque: Yeah, yeah, that sounds good. And is, that is, is the shipping thing related to this ticket.
76 00:14:07.100 ⇒ 00:14:13.739 Ryan Luke Daque: Yes, that’s that’s what I created. So I we can track that
77 00:14:14.840 ⇒ 00:14:21.070 Uttam Kumaran: So I’m gonna put I’m just gonna call it here. I’m gonna say. line
78 00:14:21.190 ⇒ 00:14:28.240 Uttam Kumaran: multi quantity
79 00:14:30.470 ⇒ 00:14:31.730 Uttam Kumaran: products
80 00:14:33.250 ⇒ 00:14:34.630 Uttam Kumaran: housing.
81 00:14:39.310 ⇒ 00:14:40.320 Uttam Kumaran: but
82 00:14:41.680 ⇒ 00:14:45.370 Uttam Kumaran: multi-quanity, same product
83 00:14:46.610 ⇒ 00:14:49.850 Uttam Kumaran: and multi
84 00:14:50.980 ⇒ 00:14:52.460 Uttam Kumaran: shipments
85 00:14:53.080 ⇒ 00:14:57.059 Uttam Kumaran: pause and duplication in Amazon.
86 00:15:02.690 ⇒ 00:15:04.310 Uttam Kumaran: I’m gonna save that
87 00:15:04.440 ⇒ 00:15:07.950 Uttam Kumaran: I’m gonna see if I can put a label
88 00:15:08.700 ⇒ 00:15:12.110 Uttam Kumaran: on this on the bug
89 00:15:13.430 ⇒ 00:15:19.940 Uttam Kumaran: and then let’s keep this here this one. I’m going to move.
90 00:15:20.940 ⇒ 00:15:35.550 Uttam Kumaran: yeah, this. I’m gonna move to blocked. And so I’m gonna add some stuff about what I think we should do about this. But yeah, the highest priority things are this Amazon fees and
91 00:15:35.930 ⇒ 00:15:46.040 Uttam Kumaran: the refund. So everything else right now, I’m gonna just move to the backlog so we can get a really clean clean picture of what we need to do.
92 00:15:46.270 ⇒ 00:15:51.800 Ryan Luke Daque: And I’ll move the Amazon fees to in progress that way. I can work on that today.
93 00:15:52.390 ⇒ 00:15:53.650 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, cool.
94 00:15:55.990 ⇒ 00:15:59.939 Uttam Kumaran: great. So this is what we’re looking at. Currently.
95 00:16:00.300 ⇒ 00:16:12.709 Uttam Kumaran: II just like really have not had the time to go through and do this. But I am trying to find the time. Let’s see if I could. Let’s see if I can get it done today or tomorrow.
96 00:16:12.970 ⇒ 00:16:23.200 Uttam Kumaran: This should get closed out on my end, too. And then these 2 we’re gonna see. It’s gonna probably remain as blocked from my guess. Hmm, yeah.
97 00:16:24.650 ⇒ 00:16:28.240 Uttam Kumaran: Anything else on your end to call out on the sprint.
98 00:16:30.640 ⇒ 00:16:34.719 Ryan Luke Daque: I don’t think there’s anything else for now.
99 00:16:35.150 ⇒ 00:16:36.660 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, yeah.
100 00:16:38.300 ⇒ 00:16:47.199 Uttam Kumaran: So the main first process kind of change I wanted to try to do is continue to lean on github projects for more
101 00:16:47.350 ⇒ 00:17:02.269 Uttam Kumaran: tracking. And what that means is, I want to start using a couple of the different features to help us kind of understand what’s in the current sprint, which items are bugs, and then kind of how we do the prioritization.
102 00:17:02.350 ⇒ 00:17:13.199 Uttam Kumaran: the common the common thing that happens in, you know, software and a agile teams is we both have. We both have, like,
103 00:17:13.540 ⇒ 00:17:18.130 Uttam Kumaran: like output tickets, things that are net new. And then we have bugs that come up during the week.
104 00:17:18.250 ⇒ 00:17:35.530 Uttam Kumaran: The most common thing that happens is bugs come up, and then they derail the things that are yeah, the otherwise in progress. And then, you know, we end up with a larger sprint than we thought. So the way I run teams before is, I usually leave, like 20% of time
105 00:17:35.800 ⇒ 00:17:43.459 Uttam Kumaran: ideally for bugs on our end, it seems to be more like 40% of time is going to bugs or or new issues.
106 00:17:43.730 ⇒ 00:17:58.090 Uttam Kumaran: You know, and I would be interested to see like what you think kind of like just looking at back at like this week and last week what you think. But for my estimation, it’s probably like 40, 40 to 50% of the time is going to like things that come up that we weren’t expecting.
107 00:17:58.450 ⇒ 00:17:59.650 Uttam Kumaran: And so.
108 00:17:59.680 ⇒ 00:18:02.110 Ryan Luke Daque: yeah, that sounds.
109 00:18:02.780 ⇒ 00:18:10.120 Uttam Kumaran: I think that sounds like fine. And that’s okay. You know. That is, that is what it is our goal.
110 00:18:10.230 ⇒ 00:18:19.749 Uttam Kumaran: A as a team will be to lower that to be 20. We’re never gonna get to the point where there’s no issues. There’s no bugs, but I
111 00:18:19.780 ⇒ 00:18:23.239 Uttam Kumaran: want our sprints to be as predictable as possible.
112 00:18:23.500 ⇒ 00:18:31.950 Uttam Kumaran: and I want to be able to use a lot of the tools to track and to identify bugs, and then, to make sure, we add things like testing
113 00:18:32.140 ⇒ 00:18:38.320 Uttam Kumaran: and documentation, to be able to address some of those and talk about them quicker. So
114 00:18:38.710 ⇒ 00:18:56.550 Uttam Kumaran: the thing that II I’m gonna suggest we do is start one using some of these labels here. It’s gonna help us look at at the end of the sprint. So on Mondays we can look through and see how many bugs did we end up having
115 00:18:56.980 ⇒ 00:19:06.810 Uttam Kumaran: and how many like, or how many feature, how much, how many things are features. So the one thing I’m gonna do now is I’m gonna go through here and then kind of just mark.
116 00:19:07.520 ⇒ 00:19:09.750 Uttam Kumaran: I wonder?
117 00:19:09.800 ⇒ 00:19:11.930 Uttam Kumaran: Or can I even mark these?
118 00:19:12.480 ⇒ 00:19:16.359 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, this one, because it’s it has an issue
119 00:19:16.560 ⇒ 00:19:18.359 Uttam Kumaran: I can mark as a
120 00:19:18.850 ⇒ 00:19:19.560 Ryan Luke Daque: alright
121 00:19:19.910 ⇒ 00:19:25.530 Ryan Luke Daque: to an issue first, before we can add a label. I guess.
122 00:19:26.320 ⇒ 00:19:27.880 Ryan Luke Daque: Yeah, it looks like it.
123 00:19:29.320 ⇒ 00:19:30.530 Uttam Kumaran: This one.
124 00:19:37.000 ⇒ 00:19:41.619 Ryan Luke Daque: So like all of the tickets that we have should have a
125 00:19:41.930 ⇒ 00:19:42.980 Uttam Kumaran: an issue.
126 00:19:43.300 ⇒ 00:19:53.579 Ryan Luke Daque: A tag, I guess right? And yeah should be should have an issue as well. So let’s let’s let’s take an example one. So for this one.
127 00:19:54.630 ⇒ 00:20:00.050 Uttam Kumaran: there’s no issue here. So if I hit, convert to issue. and I do this.
128 00:20:01.970 ⇒ 00:20:04.430 Ryan Luke Daque: oh, here’s the actual ticket
129 00:20:04.690 ⇒ 00:20:05.670 Ryan Luke Daque: right?
130 00:20:06.340 ⇒ 00:20:08.480 Uttam Kumaran: And then the
131 00:20:08.940 ⇒ 00:20:12.169 Uttam Kumaran: label here is there. So
132 00:20:12.560 ⇒ 00:20:14.650 Uttam Kumaran: I actually am.
133 00:20:15.060 ⇒ 00:20:19.659 Uttam Kumaran: But I still don’t see that here on the label.
134 00:20:21.240 ⇒ 00:20:27.320 Uttam Kumaran: right? So what I’m gonna do is I’m gonna go here and I’m going to go to settings.
135 00:20:28.060 ⇒ 00:20:34.620 Uttam Kumaran: I’m gonna go to. So feels a couple. Let’s Co talk about a couple of things. So one thing I’m gonna do here is I’m gonna do.
136 00:20:34.770 ⇒ 00:20:36.469 Uttam Kumaran: I’m gonna do
137 00:20:37.790 ⇒ 00:20:45.820 Uttam Kumaran: I and we are going to. We’re going to do a single select. And we’re gonna do bogged
138 00:20:45.970 ⇒ 00:20:46.840 Ryan Luke Daque: the
139 00:20:47.220 ⇒ 00:20:49.610 Uttam Kumaran: we’re going to do
140 00:20:51.250 ⇒ 00:20:55.560 Uttam Kumaran: to do like modeling
141 00:20:57.500 ⇒ 00:21:00.430 Ryan Luke Daque: visualization. I guess data visualization.
142 00:21:00.610 ⇒ 00:21:02.530 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. So modeling.
143 00:21:04.380 ⇒ 00:21:07.160 Uttam Kumaran: actually, let’s do this modeling
144 00:21:09.330 ⇒ 00:21:10.830 Uttam Kumaran: for.
145 00:21:12.110 ⇒ 00:21:14.950 Uttam Kumaran: And then we’re gonna do and fresh.
146 00:21:18.490 ⇒ 00:21:23.619 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, let’s just do infrastructure and Frank. But let’s try this.
147 00:21:25.280 ⇒ 00:21:36.270 Uttam Kumaran: and let’s just make sure that everything is tagged. I can’t really change the color of oh, I can’t. Never mind. I’m gonna change this onto red.
148 00:21:37.710 ⇒ 00:21:40.569 Uttam Kumaran: I’m going to change modeling
149 00:21:42.150 ⇒ 00:21:44.920 Uttam Kumaran: to brain.
150 00:21:46.190 ⇒ 00:21:49.130 Uttam Kumaran: I’m going to change dashboard to blue.
151 00:21:50.390 ⇒ 00:21:54.830 Uttam Kumaran: maybe purple for light dash. and then infra.
152 00:21:55.900 ⇒ 00:21:59.010 Uttam Kumaran: you can do Hello.
153 00:22:00.940 ⇒ 00:22:12.279 Uttam Kumaran: cool. So let’s try to do that. The second thing is the sprint. So sprint we have, we’re we, you know, we’re doing we’re doing
154 00:22:12.970 ⇒ 00:22:19.610 Uttam Kumaran: what? Like weekly sprints right now. So we’re just gonna have the sprint start on Monday every week.
155 00:22:19.820 ⇒ 00:22:36.739 Uttam Kumaran: and that’s also, I think, a good cadence for like this type of work. So that’s fine. So I’m gonna let’s go through. And we can map everything to Monday. Second thing is size. So this is also also also gonna be important. I wanna be make sure that we can understand how much
156 00:22:36.840 ⇒ 00:22:46.770 Uttam Kumaran: time is being spent on the client. And this is our best way of kind of tracking outside of like communications and slack, how much development time.
157 00:22:46.850 ⇒ 00:22:48.749 Uttam Kumaran: you know, work is taking for them.
158 00:22:48.890 ⇒ 00:22:53.789 Uttam Kumaran: So the things I want I want to put in here is I wanna do I wanna
159 00:22:54.440 ⇒ 00:23:05.360 Uttam Kumaran: like II kind of like these these sorts of labels. But I also want to put in here kind of like estimations of time. So this should be like 30 min.
160 00:23:05.470 ⇒ 00:23:06.450 Ryan Luke Daque: Hmm.
161 00:23:08.650 ⇒ 00:23:17.940 Uttam Kumaran: that should be like 30 min. This should be small, as like,
162 00:23:18.670 ⇒ 00:23:23.870 Ryan Luke Daque: one to yeah, like one to 3 h
163 00:23:28.410 ⇒ 00:23:29.820 Uttam Kumaran: medium.
164 00:23:30.150 ⇒ 00:23:32.240 Ryan Luke Daque: maybe a whole day. 4 to 8.
165 00:23:33.090 ⇒ 00:23:34.810 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, it’s gonna be
166 00:23:35.490 ⇒ 00:23:38.000 Uttam Kumaran: like, yeah, one day.
167 00:23:43.710 ⇒ 00:23:45.800 Uttam Kumaran: And then large is going to be
168 00:23:47.930 ⇒ 00:23:51.689 Uttam Kumaran: one plus day, yeah.
169 00:23:52.200 ⇒ 00:23:58.240 Uttam Kumaran: 2 to 3 days. And so I’m also gonna delete this extra large thing.
170 00:23:59.670 ⇒ 00:24:11.569 Uttam Kumaran: So also to help to kind of the way. Best way to think about this is, we should not have tickets. Most of our tickets should be broken down into mediums or smalls. If we have any large tickets.
171 00:24:11.840 ⇒ 00:24:22.510 Uttam Kumaran: we should try to break it down and figure out how we can all collaborate on that. But it’s good to be able to track it. Things like this. So, for example, I made an update to
172 00:24:22.660 ⇒ 00:24:30.100 Uttam Kumaran: I made an update to with a product class Ct, that took me like 10 min to do. So. That’s a quick, tiny one that I will go create.
173 00:24:30.350 ⇒ 00:24:36.450 Uttam Kumaran: There’s other things that are small, medium. So this is almost like half day, full day multiple days.
174 00:24:36.740 ⇒ 00:24:44.850 Uttam Kumaran: Most of the things will land in here. The one things I want so that the main thing I want to do is take a look at how much time we have in a week. For example.
175 00:24:44.940 ⇒ 00:24:50.639 Uttam Kumaran: we have 5 mediums in a week. We probably have 8 smalls.
176 00:24:50.930 ⇒ 00:25:02.730 Uttam Kumaran: and probably quite a bit more Tiny’s. So we should be able to look at the number of tickets in the sprint and get a sense of. Is this accomplishable?
177 00:25:02.750 ⇒ 00:25:03.800 Uttam Kumaran: Is this.
178 00:25:03.910 ⇒ 00:25:05.820 Uttam Kumaran: you know? Is this like
179 00:25:05.970 ⇒ 00:25:18.640 Uttam Kumaran: how much, how much work and hours is this? I think we I don’t want it. I don’t need this to be like, oh, this is a medium plus a small as well. But II don’t. I just want us to have it tracked because you’re you’ll you’ll find that
180 00:25:19.080 ⇒ 00:25:32.889 Uttam Kumaran: But what we actually deliver. It’ll be a lot different than what we planned. And that’s actually what I’m trying to attack is, what do we plan to do? What did we end up doing. And then what was the difference? And can we start to get more aligned towards what our real output is?
181 00:25:33.170 ⇒ 00:25:47.669 Uttam Kumaran: That’s that’s basically. And that also helps. You understand? Okay, do we need to bring on more people? Are we like working on the right things in the right order and get a sense of like, okay, how much, actually, are we able to provide for the client in a given week?
182 00:25:47.920 ⇒ 00:25:50.770 Uttam Kumaran: So that’s the general gist of of this.
183 00:25:51.560 ⇒ 00:25:53.049 Ryan Luke Daque: Yeah, that makes sense
184 00:25:53.650 ⇒ 00:26:07.059 Ryan Luke Daque: like what what happens like, for example, when I was like working on the refunds ticket and like, we realized that, oh, maybe we need to create a different, a model for just for discounts.
185 00:26:07.230 ⇒ 00:26:09.440 Uttam Kumaran: I should be like, create a
186 00:26:09.650 ⇒ 00:26:12.649 Ryan Luke Daque: different ticket for that or like a sub task.
187 00:26:13.240 ⇒ 00:26:19.369 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. So my suggestion would be creating an additional ticket. So leave the original ticket as is
188 00:26:19.400 ⇒ 00:26:31.959 Uttam Kumaran: that ticket was probably like a small. or maybe I don’t know. And then what you could do is you could say I need to create a discounts model. It’s it can be attached to the same issue. But it’s it’s a that’s a ticket.
189 00:26:32.070 ⇒ 00:26:35.670 Uttam Kumaran: And then that way we can also look at new tickets added.
190 00:26:35.850 ⇒ 00:26:42.640 Uttam Kumaran: So this there’s going to be what we plan on Monday. There’s going to be a bunch of tickets added between the weeks. And then, when we look at it on Thursday, we’re going to say.
191 00:26:42.730 ⇒ 00:26:55.869 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, we added 6 tickets. On Monday we added 3 more tickets midweek, and there’s all 2 tickets remaining that way and get a sense of like. Hey? How many things are new. Are we doing a good job and planning, for example, the discounts thing? Maybe we could have
192 00:26:56.150 ⇒ 00:27:02.820 Uttam Kumaran: caught that in the way I was making a ticket or something like that. Right? So those are the things that kind of wanna be able to find out
193 00:27:02.860 ⇒ 00:27:07.899 Uttam Kumaran: again. Just helpful for us to do kind of these like retrospectives.
194 00:27:09.780 ⇒ 00:27:14.710 Uttam Kumaran: And then the last thing on priority. So I’m actually going to
195 00:27:15.480 ⇒ 00:27:25.010 Uttam Kumaran: remove some of the some I’m gonna remove medium cause. I don’t like having too many options. I think there’s hot, low, high, and urgent.
196 00:27:25.080 ⇒ 00:27:27.800 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, and urgent is like.
197 00:27:27.900 ⇒ 00:27:31.760 Uttam Kumaran: something’s broken. And then there’s high and low. And I think this is great.
198 00:27:32.060 ⇒ 00:27:33.010 Ryan Luke Daque: Okay.
199 00:27:34.110 ⇒ 00:27:41.330 Uttam Kumaran: so we should be able to clearly put something in a high and low. And then the way things move out of the backlog should be, according to this, in a given sprint.
200 00:27:41.400 ⇒ 00:27:42.710 Ryan Luke Daque: makes sense. Yeah.
201 00:27:43.770 ⇒ 00:27:46.540 Uttam Kumaran: And then status
202 00:27:46.970 ⇒ 00:27:49.550 Uttam Kumaran: this is all based on
203 00:27:50.130 ⇒ 00:27:57.389 Uttam Kumaran: the different places that you put the ticket in. So that’s totally fine. I don’t think there’s anything else
204 00:27:57.490 ⇒ 00:28:05.299 Uttam Kumaran: here. Here. So what I’m gonna do is I can go through here and let’s just go through and
205 00:28:06.170 ⇒ 00:28:09.730 Uttam Kumaran: and all the statuses. And
206 00:28:10.650 ⇒ 00:28:11.960 Ryan Luke Daque: yes, I guess
207 00:28:12.970 ⇒ 00:28:17.979 Uttam Kumaran: yeah. So I’m gonna go through here and add this priority as 5.
208 00:28:18.250 ⇒ 00:28:20.330 This sprint is
209 00:28:20.730 ⇒ 00:28:23.259 Uttam Kumaran: on Monday, 20 ninth.
210 00:28:23.350 ⇒ 00:28:25.009 The type is a
211 00:28:25.390 ⇒ 00:28:26.420 Uttam Kumaran: fog
212 00:28:27.210 ⇒ 00:28:31.590 Uttam Kumaran: size is probably a small.
213 00:28:32.140 ⇒ 00:28:35.400 Uttam Kumaran: and I’m assigned great.
214 00:28:36.190 ⇒ 00:28:39.359 Uttam Kumaran: let’s do this one
215 00:28:40.340 ⇒ 00:28:42.430 box and light connector
216 00:28:42.460 ⇒ 00:28:43.680 Uttam Kumaran: for unleashed
217 00:28:44.350 ⇒ 00:28:52.899 Uttam Kumaran: So I’m actually gonna change this to create 5, 10 light connector and model unleashed
218 00:28:53.480 ⇒ 00:28:54.550 Uttam Kumaran: data
219 00:28:55.290 ⇒ 00:29:01.920 Uttam Kumaran: that way. This kind of encompasses that whole thing. This is a high priority.
220 00:29:02.220 ⇒ 00:29:05.399 Uttam Kumaran: This one is a medium.
221 00:29:05.810 ⇒ 00:29:10.300 Uttam Kumaran: This one is the sprint, but it’s probably not gonna happen.
222 00:29:10.550 ⇒ 00:29:12.709 Uttam Kumaran: And this is modeling.
223 00:29:15.540 ⇒ 00:29:17.359 Uttam Kumaran: The song.
224 00:29:19.340 ⇒ 00:29:25.720 Uttam Kumaran: So the priority for this one is 5 size is
225 00:29:26.510 ⇒ 00:29:30.429 Uttam Kumaran: probably, what do you think for this one like? Probably a medium?
226 00:29:31.500 ⇒ 00:29:32.740 Yeah, we did
227 00:29:34.670 ⇒ 00:29:35.630 Uttam Kumaran: rent.
228 00:29:36.490 ⇒ 00:29:41.850 Uttam Kumaran: let’s see, is that one and type, this bug
229 00:29:44.220 ⇒ 00:29:51.470 Uttam Kumaran: create, refund and discounts. Dash. What’s this one? We have everything except for type which is dashboard.
230 00:29:53.600 ⇒ 00:29:59.600 Uttam Kumaran: email, chuck, this is a tiny one. And this is
231 00:30:00.480 ⇒ 00:30:03.099 Uttam Kumaran: So this one is kind of interesting. I,
232 00:30:07.960 ⇒ 00:30:12.880 Uttam Kumaran: this is almost just like a client communication thing.
233 00:30:19.690 ⇒ 00:30:24.369 Uttam Kumaran: But it’s related to modeling. So or it’s related to kind of infra, or
234 00:30:26.000 ⇒ 00:30:33.540 Uttam Kumaran: I’m just gonna put under. Yeah, I’m gonna put under modeling. But let’s see, cause I just want, I’m just trying to find out what data we can get from them at the moment.
235 00:30:34.920 ⇒ 00:30:37.689 Uttam Kumaran: So the almost like, it’s almost like this is just like a
236 00:30:39.060 ⇒ 00:30:42.010 Uttam Kumaran: just need to find out whether
237 00:30:43.370 ⇒ 00:30:45.679 Uttam Kumaran: what I what I hear back from you. Honestly.
238 00:30:46.330 ⇒ 00:30:48.739 Ryan Luke Daque: yeah. And maybe they’re resulting.
239 00:30:49.440 ⇒ 00:30:56.809 Uttam Kumaran: Conversation would be to create a another day to model, which would be a different ticket or something. Yeah, exactly.
240 00:30:58.940 ⇒ 00:31:07.830 Uttam Kumaran: So this one. This one priority, I would say it’s a low size, is a small
241 00:31:08.140 ⇒ 00:31:11.379 Uttam Kumaran: type, is infra.
242 00:31:14.930 ⇒ 00:31:17.400 Uttam Kumaran: And then this one, the same thing
243 00:31:19.250 ⇒ 00:31:26.880 Uttam Kumaran: already is all. Oh, II would say, yeah, plus, the prior is low size, a little small.
244 00:31:27.490 ⇒ 00:31:32.260 Uttam Kumaran: This is, gonna be on 29. Let me take this info.
245 00:31:34.320 ⇒ 00:31:37.670 Uttam Kumaran: And so all these should have
246 00:31:39.570 ⇒ 00:31:47.940 Uttam Kumaran: all these should have the labels, or like the The other thing I want to look at is
247 00:31:55.090 ⇒ 00:31:57.200 Uttam Kumaran: I will get.
248 00:32:01.240 ⇒ 00:32:02.189 Uttam Kumaran: It’s too good.
249 00:32:15.570 ⇒ 00:32:16.760 Uttam Kumaran: How do I?
250 00:32:20.680 ⇒ 00:32:23.609 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, okay. Now you can see all of them.
251 00:32:24.900 ⇒ 00:32:28.760 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, cool. And then the last one here is this Amazon fees.
252 00:32:29.070 ⇒ 00:32:32.519 Ryan Luke Daque: What do you click? What did you click? Simply show everything?
253 00:32:32.530 ⇒ 00:32:36.399 Uttam Kumaran: I don’t know. I think it just refresh. But I just wanted to sort by priority.
254 00:32:38.190 ⇒ 00:32:39.050 Ryan Luke Daque: Yeah.
255 00:32:39.890 ⇒ 00:32:43.399 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, and then fields here, you can look at all the fields.
256 00:32:44.820 ⇒ 00:32:46.030 Uttam Kumaran: And
257 00:32:54.430 ⇒ 00:32:57.750 Uttam Kumaran: okay, so that’s all. This is all great.
258 00:33:08.950 ⇒ 00:33:10.260 Uttam Kumaran: one sec.
259 00:33:12.210 ⇒ 00:33:20.579 Uttam Kumaran: And then the last one is Amazon fees. So this one is new modeling one. Yeah, okay, this one’s okay.
260 00:33:29.910 ⇒ 00:33:37.689 Uttam Kumaran: Great. So what also, what I want to do is, there’s a view here where we can look at current sprint. So
261 00:33:38.020 ⇒ 00:33:43.820 Uttam Kumaran: let’s I wanna kind of go through here and make sure all of these are.
262 00:33:44.200 ⇒ 00:33:56.079 Uttam Kumaran: And yeah, have a Oh, now I’m gonna now I’m gonna mess this one up. How do I sort
263 00:33:58.500 ⇒ 00:34:00.209 Uttam Kumaran: swipe by
264 00:34:33.960 ⇒ 00:34:36.439 Uttam Kumaran: interesting?
265 00:34:43.510 ⇒ 00:34:46.310 Uttam Kumaran: So what was? Oh, so this one
266 00:34:48.510 ⇒ 00:34:50.969 Uttam Kumaran: I wanted to do. Sprint
267 00:34:52.730 ⇒ 00:34:54.449 Uttam Kumaran: is January 20, ninth.
268 00:34:55.080 ⇒ 00:34:57.000 Ryan Luke Daque: Hmm, okay, cool. Alright.
269 00:34:57.060 ⇒ 00:34:58.550 Uttam Kumaran: That’s gonna be
270 00:35:01.010 ⇒ 00:35:02.430 Uttam Kumaran: current sprints.
271 00:35:10.410 ⇒ 00:35:15.420 Uttam Kumaran: And then I just think I lost a bunch of these somewhere.
272 00:35:19.750 ⇒ 00:35:23.110 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, like this one. I’m gonna put into the current sprint
273 00:35:29.520 ⇒ 00:35:31.030 Uttam Kumaran: this 1, 2.
274 00:35:55.940 ⇒ 00:35:57.670 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, this was from
275 00:36:02.180 ⇒ 00:36:03.980 Uttam Kumaran: Let’s just throw this in here.
276 00:36:14.180 ⇒ 00:36:15.540 Ryan Luke Daque: It wasn’t the script.
277 00:36:16.680 ⇒ 00:36:18.690 Uttam Kumaran: I think all these were this rent.
278 00:36:21.140 ⇒ 00:36:25.680 Ryan Luke Daque: I think you skipped one for the like dash validation issues.
279 00:36:29.320 ⇒ 00:36:30.709 Uttam Kumaran: This was from last week.
280 00:36:30.800 ⇒ 00:36:32.749 Ryan Luke Daque: Yeah, just for last week.
281 00:36:33.490 ⇒ 00:36:35.750 Uttam Kumaran: I’m just gonna I’ll just throw it into last week.
282 00:36:56.500 ⇒ 00:36:58.709 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, so let’s
283 00:36:59.400 ⇒ 00:37:02.900 Uttam Kumaran: that looks good. So let’s take a look at the current sprint. Then.
284 00:37:05.860 ⇒ 00:37:07.230 Ryan Luke Daque: yeah, nice
285 00:37:10.230 ⇒ 00:37:16.329 Uttam Kumaran: cool. So this will be what we can take a look at on Monday and kind of see? Like how we
286 00:37:16.410 ⇒ 00:37:20.629 Uttam Kumaran: ended up. I wanna in this view, I also wanna continue to see
287 00:37:21.150 ⇒ 00:37:24.880 Uttam Kumaran: all these different things. So I wanna look at labels.
288 00:37:30.660 ⇒ 00:37:36.430 Uttam Kumaran: And then I also want to be able to slice by
289 00:37:46.070 ⇒ 00:37:51.690 Uttam Kumaran: maybe. Type.
290 00:37:55.100 ⇒ 00:37:57.049 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, that’s that’s really helpful.
291 00:38:01.270 ⇒ 00:38:03.820 Uttam Kumaran: It’s also we can group by
292 00:38:04.530 ⇒ 00:38:05.430 Uttam Kumaran: signing.
293 00:38:18.370 ⇒ 00:38:19.539 Uttam Kumaran: where’s this one?
294 00:38:23.600 ⇒ 00:38:26.280 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, this is a oh, this one’s done.
295 00:38:27.440 ⇒ 00:38:28.310 Ryan Luke Daque: Yeah.
296 00:38:29.370 ⇒ 00:38:37.109 Ryan Luke Daque: okay. But this one, we’re both on it. So I’m just gonna give it to you or I’ll take it cause I push the code
297 00:38:39.030 ⇒ 00:38:42.550 Uttam Kumaran: this and then
298 00:38:43.650 ⇒ 00:38:44.960 Uttam Kumaran: do patience.
299 00:38:48.610 ⇒ 00:38:51.530 Uttam Kumaran: and this one is assigned to me.
300 00:38:52.870 ⇒ 00:38:55.390 Uttam Kumaran: and so
301 00:39:04.210 ⇒ 00:39:05.160 Ryan Luke Daque: awesome
302 00:39:06.020 ⇒ 00:39:14.529 Ryan Luke Daque: if you see that. Would that also like, reflect on my end. I’m I’m trying to like refresh it.
303 00:39:14.540 ⇒ 00:39:17.319 Uttam Kumaran: Let me check whether it does.
304 00:39:23.610 ⇒ 00:39:24.780 Uttam Kumaran: You see it now?
305 00:39:25.260 ⇒ 00:39:25.970 Ryan Luke Daque: Yep.
306 00:39:26.150 ⇒ 00:39:28.390 Ryan Luke Daque: yep, it did. Great, cool. Okay.
307 00:39:29.510 ⇒ 00:39:37.429 Uttam Kumaran: awesome. So now it’s again, we can clearly, see here, okay, which ones don’t have types. Again, these are all this should be.
308 00:39:37.490 ⇒ 00:39:41.710 Uttam Kumaran: yeah. So this one, the type is gonna be modeling.
309 00:39:42.010 ⇒ 00:39:45.269 Uttam Kumaran: This isn’t done via dashboard. One
310 00:39:45.940 ⇒ 00:39:50.509 Uttam Kumaran: Amazon fees. This is a modeling one.
311 00:39:54.590 ⇒ 00:39:56.600 Uttam Kumaran: But why is this?
312 00:40:07.230 ⇒ 00:40:14.310 Uttam Kumaran: okay, there it goes. Refund, not showing in daily. This is a bug.
313 00:40:19.880 ⇒ 00:40:21.769 Uttam Kumaran: This is a modeling.
314 00:40:25.530 ⇒ 00:40:26.590 Uttam Kumaran: modeling.
315 00:40:29.920 ⇒ 00:40:31.800 Uttam Kumaran: nice lot of stuff.
316 00:40:40.830 ⇒ 00:40:41.940 Uttam Kumaran: This is
317 00:40:42.120 ⇒ 00:40:52.679 Uttam Kumaran: I may even create like an analysis ticket. But for now let’s just start into dashboards. But
318 00:40:52.750 ⇒ 00:40:54.160 Ryan Luke Daque: okay, yeah.
319 00:40:57.150 ⇒ 00:41:02.939 Uttam Kumaran: cool. So I think this is a good enough view to kind of see the total scope of what we’re working with.
320 00:41:03.220 ⇒ 00:41:04.190 Ryan Luke Daque: Nice.
321 00:41:04.840 ⇒ 00:41:12.859 Uttam Kumaran: And yeah, so let’s let’s let’s try this for this next sprint. I’m gonna try to be a little bit more
322 00:41:13.160 ⇒ 00:41:27.580 Uttam Kumaran: careful with when we create bugs in slack that once we’re once we’re done, or whatever we just can go back here and create the ticket. I also think in slack. It’s you can do, slash Github, and create an issue directly from slack.
323 00:41:27.670 ⇒ 00:41:32.130 Uttam Kumaran: So hopefully, it should be pretty easy to do that. Yeah.
324 00:41:33.740 ⇒ 00:41:41.179 Uttam Kumaran: The only the other thing I wanted to share today in terms of like a process thing was
325 00:41:42.050 ⇒ 00:41:51.670 Uttam Kumaran: trying to go through and do dashboard reviews. And let me share with you what I mean by that.
326 00:41:52.450 ⇒ 00:42:01.850 Uttam Kumaran: you able to see this cool so I think I may share this with you before, but this is like.
327 00:42:02.050 ⇒ 00:42:12.130 Uttam Kumaran: this is where I kind of like when I meet with them sometimes like add notes here, and I’ve done more like strategy reviews and things like that with them. But down here I actually
328 00:42:12.210 ⇒ 00:42:20.239 Uttam Kumaran: went through, pasted each of the dashboards that we have and have gone through and done some just like a basic
329 00:42:20.360 ⇒ 00:42:22.330 Uttam Kumaran: review of
330 00:42:22.460 ⇒ 00:42:31.909 Uttam Kumaran: each of the dashboards. And like, where I think there’s potential for updates, an example is
331 00:42:31.980 ⇒ 00:42:33.459 Uttam Kumaran: I look here and said
332 00:42:34.390 ⇒ 00:42:41.779 Uttam Kumaran: for this, for this example, this is percent change sales. It’s minus 14.7 versus the same month. Last year
333 00:42:41.880 ⇒ 00:42:46.630 Uttam Kumaran: I actually want this to be versus the same month at the same time last year.
334 00:42:46.890 ⇒ 00:42:48.010 Uttam Kumaran: So
335 00:42:48.240 ⇒ 00:42:53.930 Uttam Kumaran: let’s say it’s Feb. Fifth, it’d be Feb. One to fifth, 2024 versus Feb. One to fifth, 2023.
336 00:42:54.110 ⇒ 00:42:56.000 Uttam Kumaran: So that’s a good. That’s a good
337 00:42:56.220 ⇒ 00:43:02.150 Ryan Luke Daque: sorry. Last year
338 00:43:02.450 ⇒ 00:43:04.340 Uttam Kumaran: versus the last month. Total.
339 00:43:04.490 ⇒ 00:43:09.139 Ryan Luke Daque: I see. So yeah.
340 00:43:09.720 ⇒ 00:43:21.580 Uttam Kumaran: the other thing I did for this one is like, here we have product class week. I would love a month complete version of this. So this is a great thing for us to go. And just like, put in updates.
341 00:43:21.650 ⇒ 00:43:30.979 Uttam Kumaran: yeah? And then we could, we can both. Yeah. But can I also like add notes there as well.
342 00:43:31.130 ⇒ 00:43:44.290 Uttam Kumaran: yeah, you have access. You have. Yeah? So you would go in and just add, post the notes here. What we can do on Monday is we can go through. Take these posts the notes and make them into tickets.
343 00:43:44.570 ⇒ 00:43:45.420 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
344 00:43:45.700 ⇒ 00:43:51.139 I would honestly say we probably should just have one ticket for each dashboard as like a
345 00:43:51.510 ⇒ 00:44:00.070 Uttam Kumaran: just a dashboard update, and then those will all be like probably smalls, or maybe mediums.
346 00:44:00.320 ⇒ 00:44:07.920 Uttam Kumaran: Right? and then, you know, I think we can quickly make these dashboards look really, really nice.
347 00:44:08.290 ⇒ 00:44:09.020 Ryan Luke Daque: right?
348 00:44:09.190 ⇒ 00:44:26.940 Uttam Kumaran: So go through and look through this when you have a sec. It was, it was pretty quickly for me to just look at it and be like, you know. And and I think this is a really good place to do, because sometimes it’s hard for us, I think to do the modeling, and then also do this work. So it’s E. If you take some time and you put yourself in their shoes and say, okay, I’m the owner of the business.
349 00:44:27.040 ⇒ 00:44:29.100 Uttam Kumaran: Here’s what I’m looking at from shipping
350 00:44:29.520 ⇒ 00:44:38.740 Uttam Kumaran: when and here’s what, how I would look at it from their perspective. If I open this, I would say, Okay, a Fedex ltl, ups uncategorized. What is that perfect? We gotta figure that out
351 00:44:38.760 ⇒ 00:44:40.700 Uttam Kumaran: right?
352 00:44:40.950 ⇒ 00:44:43.099 Uttam Kumaran: And then another version is
353 00:44:43.440 ⇒ 00:44:51.889 Uttam Kumaran: Like this is an example of, okay, this is high shipping cost states.
354 00:44:51.960 ⇒ 00:45:02.390 Uttam Kumaran: But I also want to look at that’s the last by state. I want to look at the 7 day, 30 day this year last year
355 00:45:02.840 ⇒ 00:45:04.309 Uttam Kumaran: for every single State.
356 00:45:04.320 ⇒ 00:45:09.329 Uttam Kumaran: Hope they know that. I think there’s some. There’s some opportunities to
357 00:45:09.560 ⇒ 00:45:15.999 Uttam Kumaran: to change some things there. The other thing is, here’s refunds. I want a link to the refunds. Dash
358 00:45:16.830 ⇒ 00:45:24.370 Uttam Kumaran: that way. We can quickly go see more information. I also want to see top under product top discount codes. I want to see some of the information here.
359 00:45:24.650 ⇒ 00:45:34.329 Uttam Kumaran: So go through this and take a look at my comments. Reply to anything. I think it’s maybe it’s better to use these like comments.
360 00:45:35.230 ⇒ 00:45:43.830 Uttam Kumaran: I don’t know cause then we can kind of respond. But I also like post. It’s don’t really care either way.
361 00:45:44.030 ⇒ 00:45:44.870 Ryan Luke Daque: Okay.
362 00:45:45.400 ⇒ 00:45:49.250 Uttam Kumaran: but have a look. And then, yeah, let me know if you have any issues with Sigma.
363 00:45:49.280 ⇒ 00:45:51.280 Ryan Luke Daque: sure sounds good. Should be okay.
364 00:45:53.090 ⇒ 00:45:54.749 Ryan Luke Daque: Yeah, it’s pretty nice.
365 00:45:55.510 ⇒ 00:46:04.390 Uttam Kumaran: yeah, I think that’s it. From my end. I sent them a pretty lengthy update of all the stuff that you know. I mean, you have been working on this past week.
366 00:46:04.610 ⇒ 00:46:12.910 Uttam Kumaran: and yeah, I think for this sprint. It would be amazing to see if we can get the Amazon fees done. Cause then that that’s
367 00:46:13.020 ⇒ 00:46:22.130 Uttam Kumaran: we’re pretty much would be done with anything Manual for Amazon, which is, would be great, and then take a look at the refunds and discounts.
368 00:46:22.280 ⇒ 00:46:33.860 Uttam Kumaran: I made some Updates last night actually. So take a look at some of the charts updates that I made and then you could kind of go through and maybe make some changes if you’d like.
369 00:46:34.040 ⇒ 00:46:34.770 Ryan Luke Daque: cool.
370 00:46:36.590 ⇒ 00:46:37.990 Ryan Luke Daque: Yeah, sounds good. Okay.
371 00:46:38.340 ⇒ 00:46:52.249 Uttam Kumaran: perfect. I think that’s it for my end. So yeah, I’m really glad. I think. Let’s see how next week goes with a new sprint kind of stuff, and then hopefully. Next Thursday we’ll be able to take a look at. Okay, here’s what we planned. Here’s what we did.
372 00:46:52.390 ⇒ 00:46:56.660 Uttam Kumaran: what? What changes we make for next week? So
373 00:46:57.810 ⇒ 00:47:00.479 Ryan Luke Daque: sounds good. That was pretty productive.
374 00:47:00.700 ⇒ 00:47:11.839 Ryan Luke Daque: Yeah, you’re gonna start to realize that III used to be a product manager. So
375 00:47:11.980 ⇒ 00:47:18.519 Ryan Luke Daque: yeah, you you the. It’s very clean, like, how you manage the things.
376 00:47:18.760 ⇒ 00:47:23.459 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I It’s so funny, like I used to be in
377 00:47:24.860 ⇒ 00:47:26.950 Uttam Kumaran: I don’t know. I used to.
378 00:47:27.190 ⇒ 00:47:33.469 Uttam Kumaran: I just used to be in so many meetings that it would be like I would be in 6, 7 meetings a day.
379 00:47:33.480 ⇒ 00:47:53.060 Uttam Kumaran: and every meeting it’s it almost gets derailed like something happens. So I’m I come in a meeting. I’m like I wanna, talk about this.

And I like I used to this. I did this for, like.
380 00:47:53.160 ⇒ 00:48:08.259 Uttam Kumaran: you know, almost like 3 years. And then my last company I was I was leading product. So every project I was like leading. and so I meet with designers, engineers, both executives. Every meeting I come prepared with notes.
381 00:48:08.410 ⇒ 00:48:11.280 Uttam Kumaran: actions, takeaways follow ups

384 00:48:20.970 ⇒ 00:48:26.370 Uttam Kumaran: I’m trying to be a lot more calm. And this stuff is also way, more fun than some of the stuff I was doing before. So
385 00:48:26.520 ⇒ 00:48:27.650 Ryan Luke Daque: nice.
386 00:48:28.430 ⇒ 00:48:29.390 Uttam Kumaran: Yes.

Come come on, and we can all be as an engineering team soon, and then yes, slowly, the team is kind of growing. I’m continuing to interview some more people. I’m interviewing someone for data vis work someone to kind of help us make a really really beautiful looking dashboards. And then, as well as
389 00:49:00.550 ⇒ 00:49:06.329 Uttam Kumaran: hopefully trying to bring on some more engineers. So we’re growing the team.
