1 Project, 4 Boards - How can i avoid duplication of tickets on all 4 boards?

[Inderpreet Singh Dhody]

Hi Everyone,

I have a project A which has 4 boards, A1-A2-A3-A4. When i am creating any type of ticket (task, story, bug etc) it is visible on all 4 boards and I do not want this.

How can i separate tasks based on boards?

Example:

Task 1 added to the Project A should be visible only on board A1 and not on A2

Task 2 added to Project A should be visible only board A2 and not on A1.

Please suggest.

Thanks!

@Inderpreet Singh Dhody Welcome to the Atlassian community

Each board is populated with issues through a filter.  You could adjust the issue filter to pull specific issues.  I would suggest filtering on a component.  You could then have a component that is associated with each board.  When the component is added to the issue the board with then pick that issue up.

@Brant Schroeder Thanks a ton!

I used the board's feature of "Filter Query" and it works nicely.

It is important to understand that there is no "duplication" here - boards are a view of a selection of issues, not containers for them.

What you're seeing here is four different views of a single issue - all four boards are showing you the same thing.  By editing the queries for the boards, you are simply changing what they select to see.
