Hi Everyone,
I am in need of support regarding of ordering Issues in Jira Backlog.
Recent I implemented a new work flow to to an existing Jira project. The workflow is given below
Migration of Issues like Bugs, Epic, Story, Task and Sub-Task were successfully migrated to the work flow with an active work flow scheme in place.
However I have an issue with the ordering in the backlog, which i cant seem to get my way round it after attempting several Filtering Conditions.
In line with the pics above, There are Sprint 1 -45,. However Sprint 5, 34, 35,36,37,38 and 7 are all close print. But this wouldnt move away from the backlog. I am been trying to reorder bring. To have At least Sprint 39 and 40 back in the backlog.
Several filtering command has been initaited, but nothing changes. Can i some assistance to resolve this issue
1. project = P.name AND (sprint in openSprints() OR sprint in closedSprints()) ORDER BY sprint ASC, Rank ASC
2. sprint in openSprints() OR sprint in closedSprints() ORDER BY sprint ASC, Rank ASC
3. project = P.Name AND priority = High ORDER BY Rank ASC
4. project = P.Name AND status != Closed ORDER BY Rank ASC
5. project = P.Name ORDER BY Rank ASC
In the P.Name the project name was inserted as this only should apply to one Project
Having suggestion to resolve this from the community will be helpful
High @Hope Adegbemile and welcome to the Community!
My guess is that changing your workflow has moved issues into statuses that are (or were) not considered as closed statuses in your new workflow and associated scrum board.
For issues to be considered done in a scrum board, they must be in the rightmost column of your board. I would start by reviewing the issues in the closed sprints you refer to and verify the issue statuses of all issues in those sprints.
So, as an example, create a search to retrieve all issues in sprint 5 and check their statuses. Have a look if there's any issues there with a status that is not mapped to the rightmost column of your current board. If you haven't already done so, make sure to adapt your board, so all statuses of your workflow are mapped correctly to board columns. If that is all sorted out, then see what happens.
For a bit more context: Jira displays sprints in the backlog based on the value of the sprint field on any issues returned by your board filter. Issues in a status that is not in the rightmost column of your board are considered incomplete and - as a result - appear in your backlog. If they are associated with a sprint, then that sprint is displayed as well.
Hope this helps!
Hi @Walter Buggenhout Thank you for your reply
Nailing the issue down to board really helped to resolve the issue. I finally discovered the project has 3 different board applied. When the default board was selected everything looks to be in the right order and the backlog now has only the active sprint. Thanks for the insight
