I believe this issue is a duplicate of JSWCLOUD-20563 – As a Scrum Master, I'd like the ability to automatically start and stop sprints based on the dates I've entered.

I recommend that watchers of this issue vote on and watch the above issue. So that votes aren't split, I believe this ticket should be closed, but I will wait a week before taking any action in case anyone thinks both issues should continue to exist. Thank you!

Is this still ongoing? Needed this feature badly in our Jira.

By the way: If you want this feature, please leave your vote on the top left or use the "more" button for it!

+1 for this suggestion.

It would be great if I could set a Sprint Start & Sprint End date/time and a default action for unresolved tickets.

I'm the head of the development team here, but I also have to do what a scrum master would do, so the manual administration of fortnightly sprints adds up to my time that needs to be used for development.

My team also needs this feature. It sounds like a very basic functionality for a sprint management for me.

Please consider to implement this suggestion. 

Our development department is also requesting this functionality.

Reopening for further consideration.

Kind regards,

I think there are more customers than Atlassian is aware of that want this feature but are resigned to the fact that it's not part of the new version (and why not???).  VersionOne has this feature and it was great to be able to let the app know date/time to end the sprint automatically.  Saves one from having to do it manually, sometimes forgetting to do it or doing it too early in the day because no access to JIRA after going home.  

Make our lives easier, Atlassian!  Make the sprint end automatically - you're already going to allow a sprint to be reopened, so take the next step!

I'll like to save some time too. Please reconsider to implement this feature.
