Filtering out unresolved tasks from the previous sprint to add to the new sprint

[Daniel]

I am trying to use a filter to find what items for our closed sprint are unresolved and have not already been move into the newly opened sprint.

Here's the filter I was trying. It worked during last sprint, but now it is displaying items that have been in both the current and previous sprint.

project = PPP AND resolution = Unresolved AND Sprint in closedSprints() AND NOT Sprint in openSprints()

Turns out my filter was doing it's job perfectly. The work that was reappearing was subtasks of a story that was not in my current sprint - I had duplicated that story title in the new sprint - thus the confusion. (I had "Orphan tasks" in the new sprint, and "Orphaned tasks" in the old one - without realising).

So hopefully my post will help someone else to solve the same problem. No plug in needed - just better data entry! :P

Hello,

You would need an add-on like ScriptRunner. Your JQL would look like this:

issueFunction in previousSprint(board name)

You can find more info here:

Our Department has add-ons pretty much locked down, so that we have no access to them - any other options you can think of?

You can not do it out of the box. You can develop your own plugin.
