configure Jira backlog to view the status of tickets for current active sprint

Question

Hello,

Can someone help me to configure the Jira backlog to view the status of each ticket (e.g. Todo, InProgress, In SQA, Ready for PO, Done) for current active sprint.

Is it possible to have such kind of view?

Any help in this matter is highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Hi @Suvradip Paul

Thanks for your response.

Yes, it is for Company managed projects and Scrum.

We do have an active board, manage (add/delete) columns and track the progress of each story as per their mapped column.

My question was, can we somehow show the mapped status (Todo, Inprogress etc) of each story in the backlog?

Currently, the backlog view displays the following labels.

* Fix version
* Epic link
* Components
* Story points
* Priority
* Assignee

Can we add another label that will show the status of each story (in the backlog) as per their mapped status?

Regards,

Shahbaz

Hi @Muhammad Shahbaz Munir ,

Thanks for posting and welcome to the community.

I am assuming this is for Company managed Project and  Scrum - Sprints are being followed.

I think if you switch from Backlog view to Active sprints view and if these are mapped status then you would be able to see swimlanes with the status mentioned. You have to check Board settings to Column management for mapped columns.

I would request you to go through this guide - https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/use-active-sprints/ for details.

Please accept the answer if it solves your query else respond and allow others to share input.

Cheers
