Hello!

I've come across a problem I'm hoping someone can help with. We have multiple scrum teams working on the same project, each has their own milestones and deliverables and each works in the same overall project. When we set the backlog order it applies to the entire project, not the milestone. Two Questions:

1) Is this how "Project Backlog" has always worked? I know I tested this before and I could swear each milestone had its own independent backlog order.

2) Can anyone think of a creative work around to the problem? How can I have multiple milestones using the same backlog list within an overall project?

As a feature request I'd like to suggest an option to allow the backlog order to work for milestones or projects as a whole.

Thanks!

Don

The Project Backlog plugin is just that: a per-project backlog. This is the way it has always worked.

One workaround to support your workflow might be to create a separate project for each team to use, and then use global milestones so that cases from either project could be added to those milestones.

	Hi Db, Unfortunately that causes a number of other problems. The least of which is users searching through multiple projects to find issues. Is source available for this plug-in so we could modify it to suite our needs? Don – Don Fuller Feb 24 2011 at 13:27
	If you're running FogBugz on your own server, then yes. You can find the source for the Project Backlog plugin under [path to FogBugz installation directory]/Plugins/examples/ProjectBacklog – db♦ Feb 24 2011 at 23:27
