One issue in two backlogs, what happens if sprint created

unknown

Hello,

We have had a situation that two boards had sprints generated in them without board owner's knowledge.

My question is, if two boards have the same issue in the backlog, would creating a sprint with that issue on one board create a sprint in another board?

Thanks!

An issue is associated to one and only one planned or active sprint. So if you create a sprint containing an issue in one board ("Sprint 1") then this sprint will show up in the other board as a "Sprint 1" sprint.

Sprints are objects on their own so any issue drawn into a board with a sprint associated will show up as separate sprints.

For completeness: An issue can be associated with several closed sprints as it may not be completed within the active sprint(s) and moved along.

Example:

Board1: project = AA
"sprint 1", "sprint 2" created
Board2: project = BB
"SPRINT 1", "sprint Rumba" created
Board3: project in (AA, BB)

Then Board3 will show "sprint 1", "SPRINT 1", "sprint2", "sprint Rumba" in addition to any sprints created on Board3.
