released item appear in backlog again after changing workflow

Question

My backlog used to have only 20 items.

After I change the workflow, now all the done items from released sprint appear in my backlog as selected for development.

Anyone knows how to restore the backlog?

I guess you can add those issues into a new sprint, and, afterwards, close this sprint.

Yes, that is correct.

What went wrong,

* Some statutes that were set in done have been moved to selected for development --> All these items with wrong status on my active sprint is mannually corrected by me 
* The items which are in "done" status from released version also change to "selected for development". They did not appear in active sprint, They appear in backlog. -->  I want them to disappear from backlog.

Hi @Rita Yang,

So, just to understand:

* You are using a scrum board
* You changed your active workflow to the default workflow and, in this change, you had to match old statuses to new statuses
* You edited to inactive worklfow adding some statuses
* You changed the active default worklfow for the new edited workflow and, in this change, you had to match old statuses to new statuses

With these changes something went wrong and:

* Some statutes that were set in some columns have been moved to other columns or disabled --> Check if all current statuses in your project are set in the right column.
* Some issues of the product backlog are not in the initial status and these issues should be in an active sprint, isn't it?
