Get started with Jira Work Management
New to Jira Work Management? Check out our guides for new administrators and users.
To transition your issue through a workflow in the board, drag the issue you’d like to transition to a different column.
You can only drag your issue to a status that’s in order of your business project’s workflow. For example, you’re unable to drag a card from To do → Done. It needs to be dragged in the order of your workflow’s transition.
Alternatively, you can:
Open the issue dialog of the issue you’d like to transition.
Select the dropdown to change the status at the top right corner.
If you’d like to view your business project's workflow, you can:
Go to Project settings → Workflows
Select View as diagram
Only Jira admins (in company-managed projects) can edit workflows. Learn how to edit a workflow.
If you’d like to view your team-managed business project's workflow, you can:
Go to Project settings → Issue types
Select Edit workflow at the top-right of the screen.
You can edit the workflow for each issue type within your business project.
Only project admins (in team-managed projects) can edit project workflows. Learn how to edit a workflow.
Drag and drop an issue within a column to rank it higher in the column, or lower on the board. You can move items around within a column, which lets you order tasks any way you like, such as by priority, complexity, or due date.
Move even quicker in the board by performing actions for your cards without opening the issue’s detailed view. Hover your cursor over the card and select the three horizontal dots (...) at the top right of the card. You can:
Copy the link of the issue
Delete the card (if you have the Delete issues permission for the project)
Move the card to the top or bottom of the column it’s currently in
