Stack Rank for Unassigned Backlog
Asked by ytoeda:

How can I get to the unassigned backlog and stack rank items?  

When I open unassigned backlog, I see a message saying that "Ranking is currently disabled for this view.". Assuming this has something to do with the filter but without selecting a PI, I do not have an option to view unassigned backlog.

There are a couple ways to get to the Unassigned Backlog to rank items. It depends on what you set in the context bar. In the example below, I picked a program but no Program Increment, so I see all the work objects (in this case I am looking at the Feature backlog.)

![Screen Shot 2020-02-14 at 8.57.45 AM.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/83165i6BEA0B53527CD318/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screen Shot 2020-02-14 at 8.57.45 AM.png")

To get to the Unassigned Backlog for Features, pick a PI, then you'll see the Unassigned Backlog button on the right. In the example below, I am looking at PI 5 (the current PI) for my program.

![Screen Shot 2020-02-14 at 9.04.47 AM.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/83169iC679AF9BC3B4044D/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screen Shot 2020-02-14 at 9.04.47 AM.png")

When I click the Unassigned Backlog button, I get all the Features for the Mobile program that are in the Unassigned Backlog. Then I can drag and drop those features into the order I want.

The same steps apply for Epics and Capabilities (if they're enabled.) To view a Story backlog, you have to specify which Team's story backlog you want to inspect.

I have contacted an internal team to find out what the cause of this issue maybe.

We thought that the filtering was the issue but dont see any. There may be a filtering on backend that we cannot see.

Multi team dependencies
Asked by Darren.Williams.4:

Hi Team

Dependencies are the flavour of the week;)

Scenario:

* Create a multi team dependency, results in the following screenshot  
  ![Dep-multi-01.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/82939iF3ED67CDF79562F1/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Dep-multi-01.png")Note the (Related Dependencies) section
* We enter negotiations and it is revealed we missed a team,
* We would like to add the additional team dependency and list it in the Related Dependencies list

Problem

* There is no obvious why in JA to build on the (Related Dependencies) list
* We have tried:
  * To add the additional team, by updating the dependency, this simply replaces the team with the new team on Save
  * the copy function, this copies the 3 related dependencies and does not build in the list of relationships

Question

* How do we add additional related dependencies to the list?

Thanks

Darren


Answers:
author: Adil Malvankar
body: Hi Darren,

When you create a dependency and select multiple teams, it actually creates dependency for each team. In other words it is not one dependency work item for multiple teams.

You are right, when you edit the dependency to add new team, it will just replace the team and not give you option to add new one and create new dependency for new team only.

This could be a bug. Please open support case for this.

Workaround to this one is that you delete all the dependencies created for each team and create a new dependency with all teams.

The related dependencies field just gives you option to open other dependencies(duplicated) created for other teams.

You can just create a new dependency with same contents for the new team you missed. This workaround will not show in related dependencies but as all the other fields are same, you will be able to search and list all on dependencies page.

Hope that helps.

Dependency grid filter
Asked by Darren.Williams.4:

Hi Team

When viewing the Dependency grid I have attempted to filter on Type = Group Dependency which results in an empty grid, even though Group Dependency exist

If I filter on Team, I get the expected result

Version = Build: 10.64.0.1588

Is this a bug?

Thanks  
Darren


Answers:
author: Tina Behers
body: Darren - in the empty view you have the "to-Do" selected. The grid view image shows all dependencies for Pillar 3 have been committed, therefore there's nothing for them "to do" click either "Your Requests" (Red Circle) or "All" (2nd red circle)

The dependency views on this page - represent as follows:

Your Requests: Dependencies your team or pillar/program have asked for FROM others.

To-Do: Dependencies that have been asked for FROM others to be done by YOUR pillar/program or team

All: Shows both of the above in a single view.

The intent of the views is to make it simple for an RTE or product manager to see and action dependencies that have been asked of them (i.e. since the last page visit) or quickly check the list of items they have asked from others and action them from here.

Or using the All view check the status of all dependencies for the pillar/program or team. as applicable.

author: Tom O'Connor
body: Darren

If you have a TEAM defined in your Tier 1 filter, then the changing from Team to Group Dependency will not show any items since you are filtering by team at the tier 1 level.

If you change to the GROUP that the Team is under in the Tier 1 filter you may see some dependencies if any are set at the Group (Program) level.

Sounds like a permissions error. You should talk to an administrator if you're not one, and ask about the permission you have. You may be able to view, but not edit stories. Are you a member of the team?   

[@Tim Keyes](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3033263) can probably offer some assistance on this also.

Thank you for the mention.

Hi [@Ann Bouvier](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2931766)

I would agree with BJ that issues such as this are typically permission related, but given your current role and system access I would attribute this to a data issue.

Knowing if this impacts your ability to edit all stories or only particular ones then a screenshot of the issue occurring with console logs on the screen would be the next step for us to review this issue. You can access the console logs in Google Chrome by clicking the three dots in the top right corner of your browser \> More Tools \> Developer Tools \> Console.

Ideally we would work through this over a support ticket. Please let us know if you would like us to create a ticket on your behalf or if you would like to submit one.

Any way to add stories to completed sprints?
Asked by ytoeda:

Is there anyway to add stories to a completed sprint?

For some reason, sync between Jira and Jira align did not come through and stories the team worked on is in unassigned backlog.


Answers:
author: Rich Sparks
body: Once a sprint is marked as completed in Align, you can't make changes to it. But if you have the appropriate Team Role, can you reopen the sprint, add the stories, then complete the sprint again.

Once you correct your synch issue (and there's a lot of great troubleshooting information here: <https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Align-articles/Jira-Align-and-Jira-Integration-Best-Practices-and-FAQ-Table-of/ba-p/1253497> ) you can go into iteration screen and unlock it.

![Screen Shot 2020-02-09 at 9.03.33 AM.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/82441iC6AF6297F7BF5FB7/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screen Shot 2020-02-09 at 9.03.33 AM.png")Then you go to the Story backlog in Align and look at the sprint in question and the unassigned backlog together. Then just add the items from the unassigned backlog into the sprint.

You'll get a warning message because you're changing the scope of a sprint that's completed, but if you're trying to clean things up, that's OK. (And this is something that teams frequently have to do when they bring they're data into Algin and get the visibility into the complete structure and realize they haven't been updating status as they move along. We call this the "cleaning your room" stage.)

Best practice question - How do you manage releases FROM customer in your project plan?
Asked by Christophe Sutter:

Hi all,

My company is already using Jira Cloud for all of its task / activity and some release management, but not for Project planning.

In the process of setting that up through Roadmaps, I am considering the best way to manage "external events". In my case, a lot of our development is dependant on our customer's progress:

- We develop our SW

- They integrate it in their own

- We receive it back for testing once integrating

and this process can iterate several times during a project.

I would thus like to use a Jira "object" relative to my customer's integration activity and link to my own tasks / Epics / deliveries in my planning.

I see several options in the way of creating tasks, Epics for this, and managing them myself, but that seems inelegant in some ways, and I am interested in knowing if some of you have already set up such practices to see if I could get inspiration from them.

Thanks for your suggestions!


Answers:
author: Jacob Vu
body: Hi [@Christophe Sutter](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3908898)

Unfortunately, I don't think there's an elegant way to doing this without giving the vendor access to your JIRA instance.

I manage projects using JIRA / Advanced Roadmaps and when I have tasks for vendors to complete, I'll add it as a task/epic and manage it myself. This way, at least I know I'll be following the right formatting, structure, etc. that I have set and will have regular status meetings with them to update the task/epic. It's not a hands-off method (unlike getting the vendor to update) but the easiest / best solution I've thought of.

Hope that helps.

body: Could you elaborate on what specifically seems "inelegant in some ways" to you? More detail on that perspective might help to understand what problems you are exactly trying to solve.  

One thought without more context: Does it seem useful to you to have a conversation with your customer about working to some extent in the same tool so you both get more visibility on all steps of the collaboration process?

How to display summary in dependencies in schedule view of a program

Answers:

From the way that you've described it, it sounds like you're using the old Legacy interface (aka Live Plans)? If that's the case, then I don't believe that's possible.

Can I ask if you're on a cloud site or a Server instance? If you're on Cloud, then the Improved interface does have dependency visualization tools that might help with this. If you're on a Server instance, the Improved interface still has more dependency mapping tools than Live Plans, but the full suite is coming in a future release.

How to add estimated and/or logged columns to roadmap

Hi,

Traceability Matrix
Asked by Dipshikha Goyal:

Is there a way in Advance Roadmaps to get a hierarchy view that shows traceability from Epic, to Story, to Requirement, to Test Case and then be able to export it? Also can this hierarchy be saved in query view?


Answers:
author: Eddie Meardon
body: Hi [@Dipshikha Goyal](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4497273),

What exactly do you mean by traceability? My understanding of what you're asking is that your roadmap shows the hierarchy from Epic down to Test case, then be able to export based on that.

**If that's correct,** and assuming that your plan has the [hierarchy levels configured correctly](https://confluence.atlassian.com/advancedroadmapscloud/configure-your-instance-998650924.html#Configureyourinstance-hierarchy), [sort your issues](https://confluence.atlassian.com/advancedroadmapscloud/sort-issues-1019379755.html) by **Rank** and group them by **None** . Next, [set the hierarchy levels](https://confluence.atlassian.com/advancedroadmapscloud/filter-issues-998651076.html) to show Epics through Test Case.

This will give you a view that shows Epics as the top-level issue and nests each issue type beneath it in cascading order. From there, you can [export your data](https://confluence.atlassian.com/advancedroadmapscloud/share-plan-and-export-data-998651329.html) as a .csv file, as a macro into a Confluence page, or share a direct link.
