In case someone comes here looking for a way to set up a second board, and you don't have the arrow down feature (01:51), it's likely because your project is set up to be team-managed vs. company-managed. Team-managed projects only support single boards (as for March 2024).
I created 2 separate Kanban boards and the stories in the first board automatically appeared in the 2nd board. How can I make sure the 2nd kanban board doesn't pick up the stories in the first board and I can create new stories in the 2nd board
What would you recommend for the following use case: you have a cross-team (1 Tech Lead, devs from different backgrounds) that attends different project initiatives (small, medium and large). I tried: - Having a backlog for each product/project but when projects are more than 6, I think It's a little bit tricky to manage. I am gonna try to have a single backlog for all of projects but with different boards. I would appreciate to hear your approach.
I like to have single backlog and projects as epics. Not really a Jira way but if same people work on all the issues easier to prioritize and manage. For separate independent teams - i use projects.
Hey Guys, Anatoly here! ✌ Are you stuck with your JIRA ? Lets sit down for an hour or two, so I can unblock you!!! Here is how to get yourself in my calendar: 329ew4w8zo3.typeform.com/to/f4AcheqX? ❤ Anatoly
Hi, I have two boards within one project, currently working on the kanban board but looking to move the issues to an existing scrum board and start working in sprints. Do you know how to do this please? Thank you for your help
Quick question, I was implementing this view of having 2 boards for the same project for 2 different teams and I got to an issue of having things "Done" on the design side but that will be "Ready for Development" in the other side (developer board). The problem now is that the issue becomes marked as "Done" even though is still "ready for development". I guess this will be a conflict right? Maybe when the design team finalizes the work, that status should not marked the issue as "Done". Any suggestions? Also, probably for reporting purposes I'd get a conflict? Haven't test this last bit yet. Cheers man. Thanks for the good work.
Good question. If you want issues to flow from one board to another, you can't have it be marked as done on Board #1, so Board #1 needs to end with the first status of Board #2. For example in Design Board the last phase would be "Ready For Development" and in Development Board the last Status should be Done. Does that make sense ?
@@defineagile Would it be possible to do a demo of this one? What happens with burn-down reports etc in the design board when this is set up like this? How would you best set this up? Thanks in advance!
@@o0JamesB0o burn-up and burn-down charts are for Scrum projects to see how you progress in a spring, are both of your boards in the same Sprint ?

Hey man, do you know how to unlink boards from different projects? I have two separate projects and boards but when closing and editing a sprint in one board, it also changes it in the other board. Please help!
Boards are just Filters, If you have this issue most probably you have issue with the same status being on 2 boards, so you will have to remove this status from one of the boards. Hope it makes sense! If you are super confused: I do offer hourly consulting if you want me to sit down and walk you through this. If so send me an email at defineagile.com@gmail.com and I will send you all the details.
Hi, Thanks for the video. I am new to Jira and opened a free team account. When I click on create board, the projects dropdown is empty. It does not warn me anything like the free accounts do not have this feature, but it does not show any projects, that's all. Can you help
You might be using Team-managed vs Company-managed project, I recommend to always use Company-managed projects (or whatever is called opposite from Team-managed)
This is a great video! But I have 1 Jira Project. Within that Jira Project, I have 3 Smaller projects that I would like to have separate Kanban boards. How can I sort the Issues within each Kanban board? Some Issues need to be on the other Kanban boards. Is there a way I can move Issues to the correct kanban board within the same project?
Quick question there are 4 different teams who are working together to complete a story In same jira project. there are 4 Kanban boards: Team Development, Team Beta, Team Engg & Team Testing. Can we use same status (eg In progress)for each board n move jira ticket from one board to another board till testing board. Team Dev In progress ticket 1, Team Beta same ticket will be moved to In progress.
Hey Saira, Unfortunately status is what defined if tickets will be shown in the board, so you will need different In Progress statuses if you want them to show on every board: In Progress Team Dev, In Progress Tem Eng etc
I'm trying to create a multiproject board for my design team, but I don't have the "Add Status" button when I am on my column management page of the configure? Is that permission-based or am I just watching an older Jira video?
Hi I have 2 different boards one for project1 for product but same team members would be working on both the boards as per the availability how can I create a planning estimations for the team and how can I track the work for both the boards thank you
I dont fully understand your question. Board is just a filter so if they are in the same project estimation will carry. If they are for different projects you have to track each separately. For planning if one project you can create a master board with all the tickets in a single planning board. Hope this helps.
Thank you so much for this! I was going crazy! Now first part of issue resolved, the problem now, on the new board, if I create a new issue on the backlog it disappear from this board and appear on the first one backlog. Any idea how to solve this?
Check what status do you have on the swim lane of board where it appears, is it Todo ? By default Backlog is in To Do Status, so wherever you have To Do status item will leave.
What if you have multiple teams (3) working on the same project each on a different feature but do have few dependencies on certain tasks only. How can we manage that with Kanban board in Jira?
If Tickets need to overlap e.g it goes from Design to Dev to QA and each of them is like 10 steps, I would create 3 separate boards and connect them with statuses. Essentially last status of Board #1 will be first Status of board #2, thus tickets will appear on next board after people move it to the last column of the previous board. Does that answer your question ?
Hi ! great video! so I have created a project and two boards in the same project, but the backlog is same for both scrum and kanban boards. how to separate the backlog for two different boards? how to create a query filter for the same ?
I think you can have 1 backlog per project because both boards share the statuses they are just filters. Also in Kanban you dont usually have backlog, your first column acts as a backlog.
hmm Sorry trying to understand the use case, you have a backlog, and backlog has bunch of tickets in TODO, and you have multiple boards, and different tickets go to different boards ? Can you give me an example ? In case of lets say Design Tickets vs Development Tickets I would have different types: Design tickets vs regular Story, that was I can clearly see. But let me know your use case, I am happy to help.

It has to be Company Managed Project

Their appearance on boards is linked to Statuses

For some reason my scrum projects do not appear in "board from an existing project", please can you help me?

Hi, I have two boards within one project, currently working on the kanban board but looking to move the issues to an existing scrum board and start working in sprints. Do you know how to do this please? Thank you for your help
If Statuses are the same, they will automatically appear in other board. I am going to launch video in a week or so about similar scenario.

I am honoured to serve you! thanks for the kind words!
What about the velocity reports. Are there 2 Booards now? One for the Designer and one for the Dev Team?
It depends. If both boards are part of the same sprint - velocity will be shared, if parallel sprint - separate velocities.
This is a great video! But I have 1 Jira Project. Within that Jira Project, I have 3 Smaller projects that I would like to have separate Kanban boards. How can I sort the Issues within each Kanban board? Some Issues need to be on the other Kanban boards. Is there a way I can move Issues to the correct kanban board within the same project?
If you go to Board Settings there is a Board Filter you can use JQL to control what is shown!
