Does closing a sprint will clear the 'Sprint' field for open issues?

Shirley Jhirad

Hi All,

Once completing a sprint, any open issues that are assigned to the sprint, auto moves to the next sprint or the backlog.

 

In JIRA 7, i see that this procedure does not clear the Sprint field from the issue itself, and if i query on the sprint, i see the list of open issues as part of it, althogh it is now part of the backlog or the next sprint.

I guess that the logic is that even though the sprint is closed and issues are removed from it, i would like to easily see which issues were committed and incomplete in the closed sprint.

Do i understand correctly? Would like to get clarifications on this,

 

Thanks

Shirley

You understand it correctly - it's retaining the sprint data from previous sprints because they're needed in order to do the numbers and report on the committed/incomplete.
