How to remove the deadline of an epic when it has stories linked to sprint?

Kaline Leoni de Almeida November 8, 2021

Hi!

How do I remove the deadline from an epic when it has stories tied to the sprint?

For example, in the "Empresa" epic I don't have stories assigned to the sprint, so I can leave without a due date. But in the case of the "Processo" epic I have two stories linked to the sprint, but I have no delivery forecast for the other stories, but Jira sets the delivery date in the story's sprint.

Hi @Kaline Leoni de Almeida -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Would you please confirm if you are using the Standard license of Jira Cloud, with the Basic Roadmaps feature?

For that version, I believe the epic timeline is based upon the Start Date and Due Date, and not based upon the child issues' sprints.  When I just tried this, I saw an epic with a timeline ending much earlier than the sprint I started (as I did not manually edit the epic).

When you view the "Processo" epic's history, who set the Due Date for it?

Kind regards,
Bill

Hi!

I am using a standard sim license of basic scripts.

In the case of the epic "Process" I left no delivery date. Within the epic there are several stories with no predicted data as well, but two of them have sprint data, so the epic assumes it will be delivered in full according to these two tasks, but in fact there are still several other stories that are unpredicted.

I wanted you to have that gradient that indicates you don't have a delivery data yet, you know?

Sorry, I am unfamiliar with a "delivery date" controlling the basic roadmap for epics.  My understanding is that it is only the Start Date and Due Date fields on the epics.

Is this for a company-managed or a team-managed project?

When you click the right mouse button appears to enter a start date and delivery date. In the case of the "Processo" I didn't put a date and it was dithered, but because the stories are not in a sprint.hira entrega.png

Thanks for that image.  It appears Atlassian decided to use a different field name for the translated dialogue: Delivery Date versus Due Date.  They are the same field.

I am unclear what is happening to cause this, and when I tried this for a Basic Roadmap, something else displayed...not even including the current sprint!
