How can I filter/sort the product requirements?
Asked by Aitor Matilla:

The product requirement list has a lot of items.

It is useful/necessary to filter them, i.e to visualize the requirements already done in version 1.0 or the pending ones...

Now the sorting element of the column just sorts the items in the same page but not all the list.

How can I filter/sort the requirements?

Thanks

It seems that you mean Product Requirements blueprint in Confluence and you need to sort the result table based on the Page Properties Report macro.

We can suggest you use our app - [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview).

Its [Table Filter](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+Filter+macro) macro works with the [Page Properties Report](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+the+app+with+the+Page+Properties+Report+macro) macro just fine. You'll be able to filter you information (by statuses and emojis as well as by regular data) and apply different kinds of sorting.

It's a bit different from what you're looking for, but our app -  
[Requirements Clarity Map](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1219475/requirements-clarity-map?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) - may help you greatly with visualizing the requirements in a form of a treegram.

Handy when you need to differentiate and color-code requirements according to size, level of certainty, and track the changes, made to them through time.

Check it out, might be of use.

If you have questions, I'd be happy to talk.

Kind redards,

Katie

Hello [@Aitor Matilla](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1235502) ,

I?m not quite sure if I understand your question correctly: You have a list of issues in you Jira navigator and need to sort them by a column heading, like this:![Sorting.jpg](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/100107i45963618FB3F9063/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Sorting.jpg")When you click on the "Status" heading, all the 177 issues are sorted, not only the 50 visible on this page.

BTW, you can also use the Jira Query Language (JQL) to sort your content, just click on "Advanced" and Jira map your request into this language:

![JQL.jpg](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/100109iB238036402CCE8C7/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "JQL.jpg")

Switch back with "Basic". More details about JQL at <https://confluence.atlassian.com/jiracoreserver087/advanced-searching-998874416.html>

As you mention, you have a lot of requirements. I guess you need to structure, organize, manage them?

I would like to share with you our add-on [R4J - Requirements Management for Jira.](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/1213064) I can arrange a free product demo for you, please [contact our service desk](https://easesolutions.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/2]) and suggest some schedule options.

Further important features for requirement management:

* different views like a document-like reading view and a tabular view. This is extended by a detail view for single issues.
* a baseline feature to snapshot current state of your tree content a e.g. at a milestone or review date.
* tracking of each issue change as revision with comparison and update features.
* a traceability matrix view to identify relationships (links) between issues of any kind
* a coverage view to analyse (and update) the dependencies from e.g. user requirements to system specification issues, development tasks and test issues in one view.
* monitoring of (requirement) changes which may have an effect on tasks or test definitions.

Please let us know if you want to know more.

Best Regards, Bernhard

Interesting option... but I meant about the product requirements list in Confluence not Jira
