Team board that the 3 teams would use to manage

How can we have team board that the 3 teams would use to manage

Hi Riaz,

Welcome to the community!

Could you please confirm if by 3 teams you mean 3 different projects on Jira or only 3 teams that are going to use the same project?

I strongly believe that a team should have one single board where all its current work can be scheduled and moved from to do towards done, visually.  

By having separate boards for each team creates focus for your teams, so they can see their work without being distracted by things they are not responsible for getting done. And - having separate boards also ensures that the out of the box reports (cumulative flow, velocity, sprint reports, burndown charts, etc) show you metrics specifically for your team. Which means you can detect bottlenecks in your team's daily operations much easier.

Also, by having different boards for your teams it does not mean you have to put the issues in separate projects as well. Each board is populated with issues from a board filter (JQL), so you as long as you assign tickets to your teams, filters can cherrypick the right issues for them as you need:

Project = X AND Component = "Team A"
Project = X AND Component = "Team B"
Project = X AND Component = "Team C"

In the example above, you can see that I'm using the field Components to set to which team the issue belongs to and each filter gather the issues related to each unique project.

You can configure the filter for each team's board to show only issues that have that team's component assigned to it or use swim-lanes in a master board to visually all issues and distinguish the different teams work. 

Hope this helps, Riaz.

Cheers,

Carlos

Hi Riaz - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

I assume when you say 3 teams that you mean 3 different projects in Jira. If that is the case, then you can change the board filter for the board to include all 3 projects. It would look something like this:

Project in (ABC, DEF, 123) ORDER BY Rank
