Completed a Sprint resulting in mismatched numbers of open items

[Adeel Mirza]

Hi all

I have a Sprint 3 that I'm due to close today. However, it's confusing me because I cannot seem to understand the logic behind the numbers.

When I look to click "Complete Sprint" I get 156 completed, 237 open work items and it asks me what to do with the open work items.

However, on the Sprint 3 board I have the top of the board saying 221 work items in total.

When I run a query for the sprint and filter on not Done items:

project = "P9OB - Oakbank" and Sprint = 254 and issuetype!= Epic and (component is EMPTY or component = QA) and status != Done

I get 135 work items.

In my board, the final column is the Done column.

I was thinking 135 would move over and not 237. Can anyone shed a light as to why?

Update: 

I closed the sprint and asked it to move everything not Done into a new Sprint for further analysis. The new sprint contains 172 work items. I'm more confused now than before!

Hi @Adeel Mirza ,

Welcome to the Community! How many work items do you see when you run Sprint = "254" ?
