+Cycle Analytics measures the time it takes to go from [an idea to production] for
 each project you have. This is achieved by not only indicating the total time it
 takes to reach at that point, but the total time is broken down into the
 multiple stages an idea has to pass through to be shipped.

 | **Stage** | **Description** |
 | --------- | --------------- |
 | Issue     | Measures the median time between creating an issue and taking action to solve it, by either labeling it or adding it to a milestone, whatever comes first. The label will be tracked only if it already has an [Issue Board list][board] created for it. |
-| Plan      | Measures the median time between the action you took for the previous stage, and pushing the first commit to the repository. To make this change tracked, the commit needs to be pushed that contains the issue closing pattern `Closes #xxx`, where `xxx` is the number of the issue related to this commit. If the commit does not contain the issue closing pattern, it is not considered to the measure time of the stage. |
-| Code      | Measures the median time between pushing a first commit (previous stage) and creating a merge request related to that commit. The key to keep the process tracked is include the issue closing pattern to the description of the merge request. |

 | Test      | Measures the median time to run the entire pipeline for that project. It's related to the time GitLab CI takes to run every job for the commits pushed to that merge request defined in the previous stage. It is basically the start->finish time for all pipelines. `master` is not excluded. It does not attempt to track time for any particular stages. |
 | Review    | Measures the median time taken to review the merge request, between its creation and until it's merged. |
-| Staging   | Measures the median time between merging the merge request until the very first deployment of the to production. It's tracked by the [environment] set to `production` in your GitLab CI configuration. If there isn't a `production` environment, this is not tracked. |
