Introducing the Program board in Plans!

[Andrei Eleodor Sirbu]

This is great, many thanks !

We would like to use these boards for PI Planning Events but unfortunately we cannot change the duration of each iteration. 

Hopefully the next update will fix this

Hi @Ірина Семеновська ! Thanks so much for your feedback.
Can you please clarify your request for me so I can better understand your use case? Were you wanting a way to persist the filters? How would the saving of filters allow you to avoid adding a label to each child issue?

[Sruti Desai]

Hi @Andrei Eleodor Sirbu
Thank you for providing your feedback, we appreciate it:)
Unfortunately individual iteration durations cannot be modified after the program board has been created. However, we have a feature where you can sync each iteration to a sprint which might be able to help you out. You can set any start + end dates to your sprints within Jira which will allow you to use your sprint durations for each iteration. You can read more about it here. Please let me know if you have any further feedback or questions and I can help you out.

Thanks!

@Sruti Desai Hello ! Thanks a lot for your answer I had no idea this feature was available. 

I'll try it out for sure if it works it's a real time saver on many levels.

Have a great day

Andrei

Some of my dev teams have started to use this new feature and really like it.   We still see it flagged as 'beta',  any ETA on when it will be officially released?

I checked this site Cloud Roadmap | Atlassian  and it just shows Beta has been released.

A quick update on this feature - it's a shame we are forced to have six iterations for a program board. We are forced to create a fake sprint in each team scrum board in order to be able to use the program board. 

We try to use it with two program boards (one for features and one for user stories).

Do you think we will be able to chose the number of iterations ourselves ? 

Kind regards

Where is the program board now? It disapeared today from our environment?

[Andrei Eleodor Sirbu]

@Frank Klein Koerkamp Same here, all the plans we have are now cut and the buttons are not in the same place anymore.

There's probably an update going on 

[Joshua Vermillion]

Why did this disappear from my instance today? I just planned our Q and now it's gone!

Hi @Frank Klein Koerkamp @Joshua Vermillion @Andrei Eleodor Sirbu

We did have a brief site issue yesterday that caused some UI issues. It should be fixed now. 

Hopefully, your planning goes smoother from here out :)

Hey everyone,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feedbacks here and in-product. 

Just sharing an update on the latest capability that we've just started to rollout: Flexible Cadences. This will allow you to have more control over the duration of your cadences as well as the number of them. You can read more about it in this Community article: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Advanced-planning-articles/Program-Board-feature-update-more-flexibility-in-your-board/ba-p/2830382

@William _Bill_ Klein we're currently aiming to have GA release delivered by the end of this Calendar year. The main feature we're building for this milestone will be a powerful visualisation of dependencies within the Program Board. I expect the Atlassian public roadmap should be updated sometime soon and will include this timeframe for the GA release.
