Sprint field format to show last sprint and number of sprint that the issue participated in

Question

Hello,

When updating a ticket I see in the screen layout the last sprint and the number of sprints the ticket participated in.

example

Sprint SPRINT40 + 1

Meaning that the issue has participated in 2 sprint

However when in the output of a filter (filter report) the sprint column shows two values

SPRINT40

SPRINT39

How do I enforce the first format in the output of a filter?

Thank you 
Enrique

Hi @Hannes Obweger - JXL for Jira

Thank you for the suggestion, at this point, I want to understand why Jira is showing the sprints field in a filter using this format

and for only some users, I checked that column definition, and FIeld configuration and I could not find any difference, I looked for a potential limitation on the width of the field to be displayed, to no avail.

Thank you for the time dedicated to my question

Hi Summer,

Thank you for your response.

As a clarification, I am not having issues filtering, my problem is the way it is being displayed, I want it only to show the last sprint and (+3) beside the sprint value, if the issue participated in 4 sprints.

Hi @Enrique - this is definitely not an ideal feature of JIRA when it displays all the historical data in the sprint field, but unfortunately the way it is. One thing you can try in your advanced filter is to filter for openSprints if the issue is in the sprint that is currently open and ongoing. Here's an example: "Epic Link" = "ABCD-12" and sprint in openSprints(). Another option is to remove the historical sprints from the actual issues, but I realize that is not ideal.

Unfortunately since this is the way Jira displays data, I do not have any other suggestions.
