How to create a filter to hide DONE tasks

Ryan Paul

Hi! 

I am using a team-managed software project.

In my backlog, how do I filter out tasks? For example, I don't want to see DONE tasks. But instead, I want to see only In Progress and To Do.

I can see EPIC, VERSIONS, LABEL, AND TYPE, which works perfectly. 

Thanks!

Hi!

You could create your own custom filter for this.

1. In the backlog, click on the three dots in the upper right corner and choose "Manage custom filters".

2. Name the filter whatever you like and write JQL for filtering away all the tasks that are done. This should work: status != Done.

3. Finish off with clicking the create button and navigate back to the backlog. You should now be able to see and use your newly created custom filter. 

Hope you find this helpful!
