Hi,
I have the following situation:
EDIT: We are using SCRUM, not Kanban boards. The suggested solution appears to work for Kanban, but not for SCRUM.
In our workflow, issues get dealt with, and then eventually end up in one of two "Done" statuees:
a) They are "Done Done", which signifies that the application code has changed and the behaviour of the software thus changes, too.
b) The ticket is "Dealt with done", i.e it is done, but code has not changed.
I now have two options, and both are unsatisfactory:
Option 1: Use two different columns for "Dealt with" and "Done" in the board.
This solution keeps the tickets that are "green" but not in the right-most column and carries them over to the next sprint, even though they are green, i.e. "done".
The order of the "Done" and "Dealt with" columns determines which tickets are carried over to the following sprint.
Option 2: Aggregate both Done statuses in one column (the right-most).
This solution doesnät work either, because I then no longer see the actual status of the ticket, only that it is, well, done. But the distinction of done status is important, otherwise we wouldn't have bothered.
I could "misuse" the label feature, and that would illustrate the status of the ticket - but that would be inappropriate, and when using labels for other things then the distinction of which tickets caused code changes and which did not would get lost in the "noise" of other labels on issues.
If there were a way to display the ticket status in an aggregated column, then that would solve my problem, but apparently that is not possible.
Any help out there?
Cheers,
Michel
