calculation not correct with filtering

Hi,

i wasnt sure if this is considered bug or a new feature so i say "its not a Bug its a feature" for you ;)

Let me explain:
i have configured the costs in my Backlog.
Now i have a theme with 2 storys.
1 story planned in a sprint and the other story isnt.
The first story has Storypoints and costs (which are correct)
The second Story has no Storypoints currently.

I get correct costs for that theme intially.
But if i start to filter for storys not planned in a sprint, i see the second story without SP and without costs. But the summary is still the costs for all storys and not for the filtered value.

The UseCase i want to achieve is that i want to know which storys are currently not planned and how much money do i still have to invest to get that things done.

Another UseCase might be to see the Story which are planned and the Money behind that.

I know u are working on the filtering, so maybe its a good time to rethink the money calculations.

Backlog ID is 4296 if u want to take a look. The Theme im Talking about is the first Theme (BKM).

I understand what you are after, you're basically saying the totals should only show the totals for what's visible, and everything else should be ignored.  We did think about this, but it's a double edged sword.  If we did that, people could get confused as their backlog total will be changing constantly.  Saying that, I will take on board what you're saying in our planning sessions for the new filtering features.  We'll keep you posted in this thread.

Yes thats the Case.
Currently the calculation is always a total, even completed or accepted stories are included.
I can use the value for a single user story for controlling but no chance to get more out of it.

Today i have to compare the money we currently have invested in a feature (which is still under development) versus the money we get from our customer versus the money we still have to invest.

The numbers are all there, i just need a way to see them as easy as possible.
As a short term solution, you could of course export the backlog to Excel and filter, but I understand why you need this feature and we will look at finding a solution.
