a weekly schedule board in jira

Question

Hi guys! We use Jira for the agile team, every person has their tasks with deadlines on them.

Is there a way to create a board/dashboard in Jira, where a person would see their tasks in a weekly schedule, like - which tasks do they have for Monday Thuesday, etc? I imagine a board with 5 columns and tasks divided into those columns, according to deadlines. Is this possible?

What would be another, fair easy way to organize tasks for a weekly schedule?

We plan certain customer project tickets weekly based on time estimates.

I added swim lanes per day based on your quick filter suggestion and it works like a charm. I moved the overdue to the top to prioritize overdue tickets.

Thanks for the tip 👍

@Viktoria Lukinova Did you find an answer to this?  I'm looking to do the same with weekday tasks.

Hi @Viktoria Lukinova

not an answer to your question if it is possible with boards (in terms of agile) but I wanted to add that we realized it for some of our teams some years back using a calendar App for Jira.

Now it depends on if you are fine with a context switching between a board and a calendar - for some users this was inacceptable.
If this is a suitable option at least you have the calendar view - as users know it from a calendar. Pretty much the same like a paper based one.

We used the App above but for Calendars there are surely options available in Marketplace.
Also the alternative approaches already mentioned sound very reasonable - the further progress might depend on the personal preferences of your users now, I think.

Cheers,
Daniel
