The Planning Board enables you to prioritise and schedule issues. Issues are represented as cards, colour-coded according to issue type (e.g. Story, Bug, Task, Improvement, etc). Version, component and assignee information is summarised at the right of the Planning Board, allowing you to quickly gauge the backlog for each. Project administrators can add new versions on the Planning Board, to create product, release and sprint backlogs.

You can also manage cards (issues) via the Planning Board. Issues can be easily scheduled and prioritised by dragging and dropping them. You can also perform common JIRA tasks, such as adding, updating and deleting issues (provided you have the appropriate JIRA permissions).

To view the planning board for your project,

  1. Login to JIRA.
  3. Select your project from the project dropdown in the top left of the planning board (above the 'Planning Board' dropdown), if it is not already selected. The 'Planning Board' will refresh with information for your project.

(tick) Tip: you can also jump directly to the Planning Board when viewing an issue in JIRA, by selecting 'Planning Board' from the 'More Actions' menu.
