Inquiry about adding a new project

blal jirjawi

Hi 

I'm new in jira
I have been working on Trello

Now I have a large product that consists of several projects, and I want to divide this product
Do I work for each part of its own project? Like what is in the picture?

In the end, it is one product, but it is divided into projects
Is this correct ?

We can't tell you how best to break up your work, we can't know enough about the way you want to work without a detailed examination of what you are doing and how you want to be working.

However, we can give some advice:

• How do you want to be working?  Don't set up Jira to work the way you work now and then try to change it as your processes change, just set it up aligned to the way you would like to work. 
• Think of projects as issue containers, not real-life projects (although that is a perfectly valid thing to align a Jira project to).  The main thing about a Jira project is that it holds all the configuration - how each issue type works (primarily the fields it has and the workflow it follows during its process lifecycle), who can do what in the project, who gets emails about stuff, and so on.
• Align a project to something you can clearly define.  A team (alignment to a team works well if you have support projects, or isolated development teams that don't really work with others), a product, components of a product, a real-life project, or any other purpose.  (When we were smaller, we had projects for time off, sales, client projects, event planning, and and and)

The most important part of defining a project is thinking through how you want your issues to work in the same way and how people get to use them.  Focus on grouping issues into projects based on who will be using them.

Once you have your projects defined, move on to the boards.  A board is best thought of as "a team's place to track their work".  Most boards are simple 1:1 mappings with projects, but when you define projects that could need different teams working on them, you can, and should, create boards that show a team's work across many projects.
