Start Sprint is Greyed Out

[Lauren Mattingly]

Hi - I am trying to start a new sprint and the button is greyed out.

I have already enabled the Parallel Sprints setting in Products and am a Site Admin.

Project type is Scrum and Team Managed.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Hello, @Lauren Mattingly ! Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Check and see if you are an Administrator for the team-managed project.

Hi @Robert Wen_Cprime_

I am an admin for the project as well as the Site. Any other tips?

I'm going to reach for the "dumb question" here and ask if you have Sprints enabled as a project feature.

I'm looking at the following page for other ideas: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/enable-sprints/

Any way you can add a screenshot?

@Robert Wen_Cprime_ I did have that enabled..

I think I figured this out while fetching the screenshots - looks like the ability to have parallel sprints is only for company managed projects, not team managed projects.

That is true.  So, are you really on a company-managed project?  If you are, you need to check that you have the Manage Sprints project permission.
