The essential flow metrics for Scrum Teams utilizing Kanban are:
Throughput: Measures the number of items completed within a time period.
Lead Time: Time from when an item enters the system to when it exits.
Cycle Time: Time it takes to complete a work item once it starts.
Work in Progress (WIP): The number of items currently in progress but not completed.
These metrics are foundational in understanding and optimizing flow within Kanban systems used alongside Scrum. "Work Item Age" and "Cumulative Flow Diagram (CFD)" are useful metrics but are not listed as primary flow metrics in Kanban for Scrum Teams.
