Can I hide Epics in the DONE column of a Jira Align process flow view after a certain # of weeks?

Jayme Burkhalter

Currently, it appears that the process flow view (for either Portfolio or Feature Epics) of a Jira Align backlog does not allow for any DONE items to be hidden from the view at any point in time. 

In JIRA, we can configure the board to drop DONE items after a certain number of days/weeks etc or after they are officially "released" with a fix version.  Is this functionality allowed in Align? The DONE column is getting quite long and cluttery after a few years.

Hi @Jayme Burkhalter

Although in JA you can use the filters to only display Epics that are under Process Step different than "Done", it doesn't allow you to customize it to filter based on a number of days/weeks as in Jira, however, if you believe this is a must-have, you can create a Product suggestion ticket following the steps below:

1. Access https://support.atlassian.com/contact/#/ 
2. Select "Product Suggestions"
3. Click on "Go to product suggestions"
4. Next, Click on the Create button
5. Fill in the required fields 

Once the above steps are complete a new Product suggestion ticket will be created and we'd recommend adding yourself as a watcher and voting for it to raise the visibility of the suggestion to the JA Product Management team.

Should you have any further doubts or concerns, feel free to raise a Jira Align support ticket and we'll assist you!
