Two Projects, One sprint board - view the cards in sprint for both prjs but not backlog

[Sarah]

Hi all,

We are adding quite a few large features to our product.  We have created a couple of new projects (prj 2 & 3) to keep large pieces of work and related stories seperate from our main project (prj 1). 

I have shared the sprint board for Prj 1 between the projects by amending the filter in the sprint board settings to include the new projects, it works well. 

However I can now see all the cards in Prj 2 & 3 in Prj 1's backlog.

Is there a way I can keep Prj 1's backlog for only Prj 1 cards and allow Prj 2 & 3 issues to share the sprint board?

I think the solution is to create an entire new project and sprint board, thoughts please as to a better way.

Hi @Sarah ,

You could create a quick filter that filters out the tickets in the backlog for project 2 and project 3 in the backlog. E.g.,

project not in (Project2,Project3) AND status not in ("To Do")

(I'm assuming "To Do" is the status for backlog items only.)

I just tried it in a test scrum board and worked for me.

Hope it helps.

Thanks Carlos, going to try it now.  Will let you know how it goes.
