Closing a sprint & cloning the issue to the next sprint

Mirmelshtein_ Roi

Hi All

Our current workflow in Jira is once we end a sprint, it will prompt the user either to move the unresolved issues to the next sprint or to the backlog.

What I want to do is to change that behaviour...meaning I'd like to close the sprint, keep the unresolved issues (not move them) but clone them to the next sprint

Does anyone know how to to this?

Hello @Mirmelshtein_ Roi

You can't change the built in Complete Sprint process to clone rather than move issues.

What problem are you trying to solve by cloning the issues?

What is actually happening is that the issue retain the record that they were in the sprint you are Completing, and then get the new sprint ID added to their Sprint field. The Sprint field will retain all the Sprint IDs for sprints to which the issue was added and never removed. "Moving" the issue to the backlog or another sprint when you Complete a sprint does not remove that issue from the Completed sprint.

Hi @Trudy P Claspill

Well what I want to get is the % of done for a completed sprint.

meaning how many issues were done in a sprint out if the whole sprint issues excluding bugs (plan vs actual). I see no option to get this if the issue keeps moving from sprint to sprint and retaining the sprint ID....the only way to see this is via the sprint report but that means calculating it manually....

Can you think of another way to do this?

Going forward you could use an Automation Rule to get the information emailed to you when the sprint is completed.

On what would you be basing the percentage? The count of issues? The Story Points in the issues?

Do you have subtasks also? If so, would you expect information from those to be included in the percentage?

Jira does not provide many native reporting options that can be used with sprints that have already been completed. You would have to look for a third party app to help you with that, if needed.

Precentage is based on the issue count and yes we do use sub-tasks as part of the calculation. How can I create such an automation?

Hi @Trudy P Claspill

Tanks for the detailed explanation !

I'll give it a try although it is seems really over complicated just o create this plan vs actual view
