How do you prevent a user story from showing up in multiple boards?

Robert Nischwitz July 20, 2018

I have a single project in which I am managing with multiple boards.  1 project with 1 scrum board and 2 kanban boards.  No matter which kanban board I am on, when I go to create a user story, the story will show up in the kanban board + it will show up in the scrum board.  The expected result is that the story will show up in only 1 board - in this case I want it to display only in the kanban board in which I created it.

I have attempted to configure the boards by adding a specific component as a filter.  That is, when I am in the kanban board and I create a story I enter a specific component in effort that the story will only show up in the kanban board.  In addition, I have configured the scrum board to display stories that do NOT equal the component I am using for the kanban board.  No success.

How do you prevent a single user story from displaying in multiple boards in the same project?

If I have read this right, which I am not sure of, we might be looking at the wrong thing.

Taking "project = PCTART" as read:

I think what you are trying to do is have issues that have the component "Data" appear on the Kanban board (which works), but it should not appear on the Scrum board (whereas everything else in the project will.

This means we need to look at your Scrum filter, which is

component = empty or component != infra or component != data

This is going to return everything.  The first clause is fine, it gives the issues with no component, but the other two say "if there is any component, then check it is not this one".   It doesn't matter what components are selected, they will always match "component X is not Infra OR Data".

Try "Component is empty or component != data"

Excellent.  Your interpretation was correct.  It's now working for me.  Thank you.

Robert,

Boards are driven by filters. Check to see if user belongs to the filter in question and where they're coming from. e.g shared from project, group. ETC. 

Please see attached image.

Hi @Robert Nischwitz,

Just to confirm, when you created the Story and added the Component Data did you refresh the web page after it's creation? Also, you do not have more then one Component named Data, correct?

Thanks
