How to control the display order of issues in Jira Service Management calendar?

[Anas Gueroihi]

Hello everyone,
I’m using the calendar view in Jira Service Management to visualize issues based on their start and end dates. I have two tickets that overlap on the same day, but I noticed that the ticket with the most recent hour appears above the other one in the calendar.

I would like to understand:

• What determines the stacking order of overlapping issues in the calendar view?
• Is there a way to configure the calendar so that issues are displayed in chronological order (earliest start date on top)?
• Alternatively, can this be controlled via JQL or any calendar settings?

Any advice or best practices would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

Hi Anas,

Do you have a time populated for the issues? Or is there just a Start date populated?

Just start date and end date

Try adding a Start time and see if that helps
