Backlog option needs to be visible under the kanban board

[Roja Gurram]

Hi All,

Under my kanban board i am unable to find the Backlog option. Could you please help me on this ASAP?

Jira version is 8.5.

Hi @Roja Gurram 

If you add backlog to any of the columns in the Kanban board other than the first, you lose it from the menu. If you put backlog back in the backlog column of the kanban board in board settings>column management, it will return to your sidenav bar. 

I have attached a screenshot for your reference. 

Please let me if this works for you. 

Cheers,

Mayur
