Sprint End Date suddenly disabled

Sarah Moughan November 26, 2025

Hi, today I added about 5 sprints and then on the 6th one, I found that I could no longer edit the End Date. Screenshot below. It seems like Jira is automatically setting the end date 3 weeks after the start date, based on previously created sprints?  What if I need to override the end date for a given sprint, can I still do that?  Thanks.

Hello @Sarah Moughan 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

The End Date is grayed out because you have specified a duration for your sprint.

Change that to custom and you will then be able to edit the end date.

Trudy, thank you!! I didn't set it to 3 weeks but I am able to change it to custom, just like you said. Thanks so much.
