Agree with Bernadette.  This is very nice to see. Thank you, Atlassian Jira team!

But can we reopen parallel sprint ? It shows that closed sprint can be opened only when currect active sprint is closed. 

Thank you everyone! Really pleased. And thank you for the detailed documentation. https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/reopen-a-sprint/

I accidentally completed a sprint on Jira mobile app; and was unable to re-open the sprint.

It's fun watching this thread just to see how Atlassian not using the software product they made.

It's incredibly confusing how the sprints work. Even if your tickets are in a "DONE" status, they will still be moved to the next sprint UNLESS the tickets are in the farthest swimlane to the right. So, if your ticket is in a "DONE" status, but it's not in the farthest swimline on the right on the board, the tickets will be moved to the next sprint automatically. 

Yes please. The UX is incredibly confusing in that I closed a sprint, and all my "Done" status tickets were still moved to the next sprint!!!  There needs to be a way to undo/correct that

Can anyone tell me all the new changes in the Jira that happened for the past 2 weeks?

When i close a sprint any open status/ Sub tasks/ in-completed/ defined  alerts are not throwing up any errors.

Today , i thought all the user stories were accepted but a task was pending in the user story and subsequently it did not throw an alert and it was moved to the next sprint which reduced the team's velocity.

Definitely looking forward for this classic capability to be enable in nex-gen. 

Looking forward to this enhancement!

8092a6ba4de3 it should be available in the few weeks! Thanks for your patience.

Eoin, this there any timeline associated with this feature, it was first identified over 1 year ago.

I've updated the title and description to reflect the remaining work here - let me know if any of you were waiting on anything else as part of this suggestion.
We're going to pick this up and do it as an interim enhancement. In the future, we hope to improve sprint management more broadly but we understand that there is an important short term need here that needs to be solved. Apologies for the delay.
Thanks

How can i manage my sprint (mistake closed) if i can't reopen it ? Are you used Jira in Atlassian company ????????

I get the feeling this is going to be the "edit tweets" of JIRA. 

Does anyone know how the voting up/down works and when/how the vote count promotes the issue to a work item or priority?
This is a 2 year old issue/request with 354 upvotes. Does this have a chance for implementation? 

Haha, of course, I forgot that was one of the reasons I got annoyed

Hi @savvas, yes there is but unfortunately it's skewed due to an old sprint that was closed by mistake

Isn't there a velocity report you can use @paul

This is presenting a problem for us also as we can't truly track velocity due to an admin error on closing a sprint

please add this functionality to next-gen boards, its so sad one can't to this currently!

We are having the same issue... 

Its been raised from 2years still not worked. I need to reopen my sprint in next JIRA. Please help

I really need to reopen it too, please add it back, plz

shocking!

NooOOOOoooo!!

COME BACK EOIN!

For the record, it has been 100 weeks since this issue was raised. Still no fix

As a customer I want to be able to delete closed sprints so that my reports are accurate.

Pretty huge oversight. And it's been open since 19/Oct/2018 COME ON @Atlassian

This is infuriating

+1 Why can't this basic feature be implemented - renaming a past Sprint?

Is the Jira database schema THAT bad? How do you rename a past Sprint? 

JHC you can rename a .doxc file by clicking on the filename.

I stopped using Jira almost a year ago because it was clear that Atlassian's development team was a useless disaster, but I remain subscribed to this issue for the entertainment value of the occasional email of yet another person complaining that this important feature has been missing for literally years.

+1 I closed the sprint while a couple of task were yet to be reviewed for a team. I now have no way of reopening the sprint and those tasks have moved to the next sprint. I lost all metrics. Why is this feature still not implemented?

+1

I closed the sprint by mistake and now am forced to recreate another sprint and loose metrics.

Or Maybe explain what the thinking was in NOT including basic functionality of previous generation Projects, aka is this designed intentionally to not be included OR have you just not gotten around to it?

+1 Why has this request since 2018 not been implemented yet?

+1. Brutally unforgiving to not have an undo button, and have this ticket open for two years

Totally essentially feature. Once a sprint is closed it's impossible to add new issues that were delivered during the sprint but were mistakenly not added!!

With "Complete Sprint" easy for novices to click, this is needed to undo a 'blunder'. Please up-vote. 

I love the next gen projects EXCEPT for this. I completed my sprint prematurely, and it has caused so many horrible repercussions!!

@joe.amato - I concur!  I've been so frustrated with the lack of feedback from Atlassian on this issue (and a couple others) that I used the "Help us improve JIRA" feedback form in hopes of getting some eyes on this open issue.  I'm beginning to think there is a black hole of issues somewhere that no one internally is seeing!  

Encourage everyone on this thread to do the same and include the URL to this ticket.  Hopefully, someone will hear the screams!
