Is it possible to activate the kanban backlog in a team-managed space?

Question

I have two different spaces: a team-managed space and a company-managed space. Both have the backlog feature active. However, the company-managed space does show the 'kanban backlog', which helps to avoid cluttering the kanban board, while the the team-managed space doesn't give me this option.

In the team-managed space it looks as follows:

While in the company-managed space the board has the kanban backlog.

Thank you Swathi, but the backlog is indeed enabled already. I can access it in the navigation bar (see attached).
However, what I don't see in the team-managed space is the column that says 'Kanban backlog' when I want to map the statuses to columns of the board.
