Done = Hidden

[Elizabeth Butler]

I work out of Jira Work Management/Business projects and I see if it's in the Done column for longer than two week it is hidden. I want to change this so it never hides the Done column. I hear it's not possible from threads but those were written in 2022. Please tell me this is resolved by now because why wouldn't you want to show all your done work? Seems silly.

Hi @Elizabeth Butler,

Just confirming that this is still an open request that you can track here: JWMCLOUD-19.

Hope this helps!

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

The definition of "done" is broadly "no-one needs to pay attention to this any more, it needs no more work", so why would you want to see such dead items on your board?  All they would do is take up space and distract people from your active work.

It seems silly not to hide them when you don't need to see them.

Hi Elizabeth,

If you do not hide your Done items, the board will get huge and unmanageable. If you are concerned that you won't be able to see your Done items, you can always to get them using the Search box or even create a filter or dashboard to show them. 

But leaving Done items on a Board forever is not a good practice.

There is still no option to change the time period for hiding done issues in JWM projects.

You can add your vote/comments to the change request for that here:
