Group work items on your plan
This page refers to the advanced planning features that are only available as part of Jira Cloud Premium and Enterprise.
Your plan lets you group work items on your timeline according to assignees, projects, component, teams, sprints, release, goals and labels. You can also group by custom fields. Find out how to group custom fields that have been added to your plan.
To change how work items are grouped:
Navigate to the View settings menu of your plan.
Find the the dropdown menu labeled Group by, then select how you want to group your work items.
If you group by component or label, select + Create group. Enter a name, and then start typing to find the components or labels to add to the group.
Before you can group by labels and components, they must be configured by an administrator. Read how to configure custom labels and components.
Any work items that don’t have a value in the selected field (for instance, no team is assigned to a work item, and you group by team) will be in the Unassigned swimlane at the bottom of your plan.
When grouping by sprint
Sprints involving multiple teams have a swimlane for each team. The sprint capacity will display for each team.
When grouping by release
Releases are ordered by release date. Those without dates, are at the bottom of the plan.
When grouping by custom field
The custom field types that can be used when grouping work items on your timeline are:
single-select
multi-select
user picker
label
