Is it possible to share the same feature between two scrum teams

Question

Features being used by multiple teams are being tagged under the Shared team features under the Easy Agile Program board/roadmap. As such the features are visible under Team Planning tab on the Easy Agile board for all the teams in the ART.

Is it possible to tag a feature so that it shows up for only the teams that are working on the- feature ?

Hi @Nirmal Swaminathan

Welcome to the community!

One challenge is who would be the primary owner, and the comments, progress of the  feature with shared teams will get real confusing very soon. I would just add tasks/sub tasks for that feature for each of the teams working on that feature. That is how manage the cross functional work in our Jira.

Hope this helps.

Hi @Nirmal Swaminathan

My name is Henri and I’m a support engineer at Easy Agile.

Currently in Easy Agile Programs, you can only schedule a roadmap-level issue in one team's swimlane, or in the "Shared team features" swimlane.

* I've passed your request to plan features for more than one team, but not all teams like the Shared team features swimlane does.

When you have a feature with tasks assigned to different teams like @Varsha Joshi suggests, :

I understand that this still leaves you with "clutter" in the Shared team features swimlane, because those issues will show for all teams even though they're only relevant to some. I'll let you know if we have improvements on this in the future!

Kind regards,
