Org trees

An org tree is your team hierarchy — imported from Microsoft Entra/Graph or a CSV — layered with contribution insight from the same connected sources that feed your boards.

Deckgauge org chart and team board — reporting hierarchy imported from CSV, a per-team board, and private 1:1 notes

A hierarchy rooted at a chosen person.

Building the tree

  • Microsoft Graph: in the tree's Source tab, paste a Graph Explorer access token and pick a root person — everyone reporting up to them is imported. See Connecting sources.
  • CSV import: upload a roster (name, email, role, manager) — no Microsoft account required.

Each person node shows name, role, manager, and location, with a detail drawer for profile fields (and salary, if you're permitted to see it). Aliases map a person's GitHub login, Jira display name, and emails together so their activity is attributed correctly across tools.

Contribution ranking

The Ranking tab scores each person 0–100 over the last 90 days, relative to everyone on the tree, and shows their rank (#N of total). The score is a weighted blend of four metrics:

MetricWeightSource
Tickets closed35%Jira / ADO work items
PRs merged30%GitHub / GitLab / ADO
Commits to main20%GitHub / GitLab / ADO
Review comments15%GitHub / GitLab / ADO

Each metric is normalized 0–100 across the tree, then weighted; the panel shows the raw count, subscore, weight, and weighted points so the total is transparent. People with no matched activity show "Not ranked."

Use responsiblyRanking is team-relative decision support, not an automated verdict on individuals. Present it alongside context, and mind local rules on measuring employees.

Employee boards

Inside a tree you can create employee boards — a board scoped to the tree's people, with configurable columns and custom cells, bulk actions, sorting, and filtering. Useful for headcount planning, onboarding trackers, or team rosters.

Timesheet view

The tree's Timesheet and Report tabs show CapEx/OpEx time allocation for its people — see Timesheet & workload.
