Project Management Core Board - Status in wrong order

unknown

I created a new project using the Project Management type , with a new workflow. I have a simple workflow.

To Do, Kick-Off, Concept, Reviewing,Revising, Final Review, Complete. I have transitions from 1 to the other with the only exception issues can go from Final Review back to Revising.

When I go to the Board the issues are listed in the following order:

To Do, Reviewing, Kick-Off, Concept, Revising, Final Review. Complete.

How do I move the Reviewing Stage on the Board between Concept and Revising? I can't find an option to reorder the board columns. Do I need to remove the workflow and recreate? Thanks

Go to the board.

When I select the project I get a left hand menu with

Summary, Board, Issues, Reports. I select Board.. when I do the only thing in the top right corner is Give feedback.

On the Top Menu I see Dashboard, Projects, Issues, Boards. If I select Boards this is one is not in there.

This is a built in board for Project Management projects. Any other suggestions. Thanks so much!

Hi Wendy,

are you trying to manage the lifecycle of a JIRA Project?

unknown

Yes I am when I created the project I selected Project Management and I tried Process management.

The workflow is very simply - however the columns on the board are not ordered according to the workflow. I have tried deleting and recreating. I have looked at the order of the status by Status ID. And now I am out of ideas wink

Hi Wendy,

I think you have conceptual misunderstanding - JIRA is a issue tracker so it tracks issues organized as projects and the workflow is for the Issues not for the Projects - they are simply containers for the issues.

So if you want to track the life cycle of the project itself there isn't out-of-the-box functionality in JIRA. Recently developed add-on for JIRA - Cycle Control does exactly that - enables you to define and track the life-cycle of the whole project or group of projects.

Let me know if that looks like what you need and we can continue the conversation in more details.

Cheers,

Actually I am trying to manage the lifecycle of an issue. Specifically this is Project is for managing creative service issues. An issue goes through 5 stages

To Do

Kick-Off

Concept

Revising,

Final Review.

Complete.

At each status I want to drag and drop each issue from 1 stage to the next and at any time I want to look at the board and see which status an issue is assigned.

Above is the order I would like to see the columns on the board as I typically move issues in that order. The only exception is that if an issues is in Final Review I can move it back to Revising or to Completed.

The board has all issues in the correct order except for 1 it keeps showing up out of order on the board. Even thought I have built 1 way transitions between each stage.

Hi Wendy,

JIRA Core Board now allow the column to be re-ordered, directly on the board itself.

If you are an admin, click and hold the column title, and drag it to the desired position.
