Different boards with unique issues have the same active sprint

Question

We have boards separated by a Team field. None of the issues are overalapping between boards. When I change the active sprint name in Board A then the active sprint in Board C gets changed and vice versa.  When I change the active sprint name in Board B then the active sprint in Board D gets changed and vice versa.

If it helps, the filters for each board are as follows:

Board A: project = XXX AND IssueType in (Story, Bug, Test) AND Team = A AND (fixVersion in unreleasedVersions() OR fixVersion is EMPTY) ORDER BY rank ASC

Board B: project = XXX AND IssueType in (Story, Bug, Test) AND Team = B AND (fixVersion in unreleasedVersions() OR fixVersion is EMPTY) ORDER BY Rank ASC

Board C: project = XXX AND IssueType in (Story, Bug, Test) AND Team = C AND (fixVersion in unreleasedVersions() OR fixVersion is EMPTY) ORDER BY Rank ASC

Board D:  project = XXX AND IssueType in (Story, Bug, Test) AND Team = D AND (fixVersion in unreleasedVersions() OR fixVersion is EMPTY) ORDER BY Rank ASC

Hi Angela

if you have active sprint then it's name is applicable accross your JIRA project. Hence it's name get's changed on different boards each time when you change it. If you can see you can only apply Board Name in the board settings but the active sprint name is related to the project backlog etc.
