Did you mean: 

how do you create a quickfilter that will sort your issues in a Scrum Board in ascending order?

On my Scrum Board, I created the following Quickfilter, thinking that this will help me to sort all issues in ASC order. But it does nothing. Is there a better way to do this using a Quickfilter?

 

What I want it to do:  Display the issues from Oldest to Newest

quickfilter JQL used:  ORDER BY created ASC

I am afraid that you can not sort issues in quickfilters. Issues are sorted by board settings (The Ranking settings in the board configuration).

Hi @Pumsen Sor-Meas

Order by do not work in quick filters. That is the expected behaviour.

To actually 'order by' your issues in the board, modify your board's filter query and change the order by from 'Rank' to 'created'.. (if thats what you want)

So the real solution is to maintain multiple boards with redundant quick filters and update all the quickfilters?

Or is everyone supposed to become a board admin just so they can sort the issues with different views?

I want to add: you can also go to the issues tab and use your quick filters there.

I think it would be convenient to toggle between different orderings of the backlog (e.g. so that I can check what tasks have been created or modified recently, and based on reviewing those tasks, update their by-rank priority in the backlog). However, opening the issues list in a separate tab seems to work fairly well.
