Boards

A board displays your team's work as cards you can move between columns. You can see a team board as the colored glasses through which we look at project data - we can customize a board to show the exact data you want to see.

The data within projects are visible on this board and can be filtered and visualized per team.

In Jira Software, cards and the tasks they represent are called “issues”. Usually, your board reflects your team's process, tracking the status of work as it makes its way through your team's process.

There are two types of boards available:

• Scrum board: for teams that plan their work in sprints. 
• Kanban board: for teams that focus on managing and constraining their work-in-progress

Boards can be accessed via the Boards  - View all boards in the top Navigation Bar.

All recent opened boards can be found in the Recent Boards list.

Scrum board

On the project sidebar you have the following options: Backlog, Active sprints, or Reports.

The Backlog of a Scrum board shows the issues for your project(s) grouped into a backlog and sprints. In the Scrum backlog, you can create and update issues, drag and drop issues to rank them, or assign them to sprints, epics, or versions, manage epics, and more. You would typically use the Scrum backlog when building a backlog of issues, planning a new version, and planning a sprint.

The Active sprints of a Scrum board displays the issues that your team is currently working on. You can create and update issues, and drag and drop issues to transition them through a workflow.

Reporting is an activity that you will be doing throughout a project. Jira Software has a range of reports that you can use to show information about your project, versions, epics, sprints, and issues.

In the Agile Scrum framework, focus lies on short iterations of work: planning what can be done within (at YME) 2 weeks of time. 

• As such, we see an active sprint with items in it (center screen).
• These items are organized into larger topics called Epics (left screen list, but also the colored labels on center screen items).
• When one item is clicked, the details are shown (right screen sidebar).

Kanban board

The Kanban board is a board that was created using the "Kanban" preset .

Kanban is based on the continuous delivery of work. Rather than plan iterations, the flow of work is constantly monitored to ensure that there are always tasks being worked on. This means that when tasks are completed, new tasks are pulled into work-in-progress.

Use the Kanban board if your team focuses on managing and constraining work-in-progress.

On the project sidebar you have the following options: Kanban board, Backlog*, or Reports.

By default, Kanban boards have the Backlog column, where you plan work for your team. Planning work in a small column becomes difficult as more issues are added in the column.
By enabling and using the Kanban backlog, you have a bigger space to create and rank issues, and select issues for your team to start working on.

Reporting is an activity that you will be doing throughout a project. Jira Software has a range of reports that you can use to show information about your project, versions, epics, sprints, and issues.

In the Agile Kanban framework, focus lies on limiting multi-tasking: by choosing fewer items to start, it's possible to complete each more quickly.

• Here we see no epic list on the left.
• In the center we see all items progress through a workflow, with columns turning red if there are too many items in it.
• When clicking one of the item cards, the details are shown on the right hand side.

Image Removed

If you wish to stop your DONE column from overflowing, there are two methods to limit it in time:

Your board admin can make either of these settings for you.

• The "Hide completed issues older than" is easiest to use, but allows limited values.
• The "Kanban board sub-filter" can be used with any query imaginable. The one in the example allows limiting to items X days old.

Board Quick Filters

At the top of a team board you usually find Quick Filters. These are specifically designed for your team board.

By clicking one of these Quick Filters, you narrow the board filter, hiding some or many items to fit the Quick Filter criterion. Deactivate it by clicking it a second time.

It's possible to select multiple Quick Filters, narrowing your selection of items on the board further and further.

Your team board administrator can maintain Quick Filters for you: change them, or add new ones.

You can also add a comment when you're adding a flag to or removing a flag from an issue. You may want to do this to indicate your reason for adding or removing the flag.

In the Issue Detail View, select Add flag and comment or Remove flag and add comment from the 'cog' drop-down. You can also right-click on the issue > Add flag and comment or Remove flag and add comment. After adding your comment, it will appear in the Comments section of the issue, with an indication that a flag was added or removed accordingly.

Manage versions

Versions are points-in-time for a project. They help you schedule and organize your releases.
Once a version is created and issues are assigned to it, you can use several reports, e.g. the Change Log report, when managing the version.
The Change Log report, in particular, gives you a review of the released version, and is driven by the 'Fix For Version' field on each issue.

Versions can only be managed when you have Project administrator or Jira Admin permission including Edit issue permission.
At YME we use an Addon for Version management called Version manager  so users without Project administrator or Jira administrator permissions can also use this functionality.

Versions set via Manage versions can be selected via drop-down fields 'Fix Version/s' and 'Affects Version'.

Manage versions in a Kanban board

A version is a set of features and fixes released together as a single update to your product. By default, Kanban boards do not require issues to be pre-assigned to versions. This is because Kanban is designed for a continuous flow of work, rather than set iterations.

On a Kanban board, you can choose to release a version at any point in time — the version will contain all issues that are complete at that time. You also specify the name of a new version at the time of the release.

For information on how to release a version on a Kanban board, see Deploying a release.

If your team is using the Kanban backlog for your Kanban project, you can use the Versions panel to manage versions.

1. Navigate to your board.

2. Click Backlog. If the Versions panel is not showing, click VERSIONS on the left side of the board (aligned vertically) to open it.

   Add a new version	Click Create version (you will need to hover over the 'VERSIONS' panel to show this link), enter the version details, and create it. * The Start Date is used to give you a more accurate Version Report in cases where you might plan a version many weeks or even months in advance, but not actually commence work until closer to the release date. * The End Date is used to calculate the days remaining in a release on the Release Hub.
   Update a version's details	For the version name, click the arrow next to the name, then choose Edit name.  For other fields (e.g. Description), click the field to edit it.
   Add an issue to a version	Drag and drop the issue onto the version in the 'VERSIONS' panel.
   Remove an issue from a version	Drag and drop the issue onto Issues without versions in the 'VERSIONS' panel.
   Filter issues by version	Click the version in the 'VERSIONS' panel to show only issues in that version. Click All issues to remove the filter. Alternatively, click Clear all filters next to the column's name.

Manage versions in a Scrum board

A version is a set of features and fixes released together as a single update to your application. Assigning issues to versions helps you plan the order in which new features (stories) for your application will be released to your customers. 

In Jira Software, you can view your issues according to which version they belong to. You can also drag-and-drop issues into a version to assign them to it, which you should do before you start work on the issues. This helps you plan your upcoming versions, which may span multiple sprints.

• Go to the Backlog of your Scrum project.

• Click VERSIONS on the left side of the board (aligned vertically) to open it.

  Add a new version	Click Create version (you will need to hover over the 'VERSIONS' panel to show this link), enter the version details, and create it. * The Start Date is used to give you a more accurate Version Report in cases where you might plan a version many weeks or even months in advance, but not actually commence work until closer to the release date. * The End Date is used to calculate the days remaining in a release on the Release Hub.
  Update a version's details	For the version name, click the arrow next to the name, then choose Edit name.  For other fields (e.g. Description), click the field to edit it.
  Add an issue to a version	Drag and drop the issue onto the version in the 'VERSIONS' panel.
  Remove an issue from a version	Drag and drop the issue onto Issues without versions in the 'VERSIONS' panel.
  Filter issues by version	Click the version in the 'VERSIONS' panel to show only issues in that version. Click All issues to remove the filter. Alternatively, click Clear all filters next to the column's name.

  
  

  • The blue horizontal bar under the version's name (in the 'VERSIONS' panel) indicates progress towards completing the work estimated for the version. Note that this bar only represents progress on the estimated issues in a version.

  • You can use the JQL fixVersion  field to search for a version's issues — see Search for details.
