New Atlassian Jira Board Enhancements

We are thrilled to announce two exciting enhancements for all users of the “Active sprints” and “Kanban board” pages in company-managed projects. Atlassian has added the ability to change assignee from the card view and group issues based on assignees. These enhancements are designed to streamline your workflow and improve your productivity within Jira.

Edit Assignee Directly:

Now, editing the assignee of an issue is easier than ever. With this enhancement, you can edit the assignee directly on the card without needing to open the issue. Simply select the assignee field on the card, make your desired changes, and save. This streamlined process eliminates the need for unnecessary clicks and navigation, allowing you to quickly update assignees and keep your tasks organized.

Group Work into Swimlanes:

Organizing and visualizing your work is essential for effective project management. With this enhancement, you can now group issues together based on assignee, epic, subtask, or project directly on the Kanban board. Simply select an option from the “Group by” dropdown menu, and your issues will be grouped accordingly. Whether you prefer to view tasks by assignee or organize them by project, this feature provides flexibility and customization to suit your team’s needs. If no option is selected, grouping will default to the board admin’s preference, ensuring consistency across the board.

Conclusion

These enhancements empower users to manage their projects more efficiently and tailor their workflow to match their unique requirements. By simplifying task management and providing greater visibility into project progress, teams can collaborate more effectively and achieve their goals with ease.

Upgrade your Jira experience today and unlock the full potential of your team’s productivity with these powerful enhancements.
