affecting 2 separate projects

[Adam Rivera]

I have 2 separate projects with their own board. When I complete a sprint on one of them, it completes it on the other. Changing the 'sprint name' also changes it on the other. Why is this happening and how can I correct it?

Hi @Adam Rivera 

Sprints are not locked to one specific Board or Project - if you have issues from 2 Projects in 1 Sprint, then it will...

• Appear in both Board locations (where Issues are part of the filter)
• Be edited / closed in all locations - as it's only one Sprint, not multiple

---

If there should be 2 separate Sprints, I'd recommend...

• Checking all existing Sprints to ensure they do not contain a combination of different Projects' issues. Search for the Sprint via Issue Search and check the results.
• Create unique Sprints per Project / Board
• Ensure new Sprints have a unique identifier, so users don't accidentally pick the wrong Sprint when setting it from an Issue's edit view - eg.
  • Project 1 - Sprint 1
  • Project 2 - Sprint 1

Hi @Adam Rivera , can you check the board filters for both sprints? If you want the two projects/scrum boards to be fully independent be sure the underlying filters do not overlap.

Let me share a recent similar post with you. Trudy does a nice job of explaining tge potential cause. 

if this is not the cause of your issue, please let me know, and will dive in further.

Thanks guys! Trudy's post helped a ton. That was weird since they're two separate projects with two completely different project and sprint names. All good now!
