complete sprint with canceled items

Question

hi.

interesting question that came from my scrum master.

she tried to close a sprint that contains 15 stories in status "done" and 1 story with status "cancel" but the sprint couldn't be closed because of the canceled issue.

i would like to keep the canceled story in the sprint as it's part of the sprint history and because i have no where to move it since it was canceled.

where can i change the "complete sprint" to allow finishing the sprint with canceled issues?

Also, another thought, maybe instead of having cancel as it's own status, make "cancel" a resolution option, and then you're status is still Done.

Hey Eli,

Under your board settings you should be able to map status to different states (To Do, In Progress and Done).

Make sure that Cancelled is under the Done column and you should be all set.

Hope this helps,
