I’m facing a challenge with Jira’s Plan feature: managing too many issues, which complicates navigation and visualization. Filters like excluding completed items or backlog issues don’t fully solve the problem, as they apply across all issue levels and types. Using complex JQL with multiple conditions feels error-prone and hard to maintain.
Use Case:
One possible solution is using ScriptRunner to create advanced filters, but I want to avoid overcomplicating the setup. Another idea: create a separate “initiative overview” project for each fiscal year, carrying forward or leaving behind initiatives as needed.
Have you faced similar challenges? How have you approached them? Any insights on using ScriptRunner or the “one project per year” idea?
Hi @Karim Mohamed ,
As you maybe aware "Plans" offers multiple Issue Sources. I would suggest trying out something like:
Overall, I understand your situation, with multiple issue sources the Plan does get out of control at time, what you need to try is set barricades as to what gets planned and what gets moved to the long term backlog in the planning phase.
Hope this helps.
