Start and Complete a Sprint
Create a sprint, add work, start it, and complete leftover tasks.
Start and Complete a Sprint
Use this workflow when delivery work should run in a time-boxed iteration.
Before You Start
Confirm that:
- 4DX Planning is enabled.
- Sprints are enabled in Settings > 4DX Planning.
- The projects exist.
- You have permission to manage sprints.
Create and Start
- Open 4DX Planning.
- Create a sprint.
- Select projects, dates, and estimation model.
- Add tasks from a backlog or create them on the sprint.
- Approve the sprint if draft approval is required.
- Start the sprint.
Work the Board
- Open the sprint Board tab.
- Group by status, assignee, priority, or epic.
- Drag tasks between status columns.
- Record standups on active sprints.
Complete
- Complete the sprint.
- Send unfinished work to the backlog or another sprint.
- Optionally add a retrospective.
Troubleshooting
If Start is unavailable:
- The sprint may still need approval.
- Check that status is planned.
If drag-and-drop does not work:
- Group by status.
- Confirm the sprint is not completed or cancelled.
