Navigate to the backlog

Use backlog to stack, rank, and assign your items across teams, sprints, and PIs.

To navigate to the backlog:

1. Select Strategy, Portfolios, Solutions, Programs, or Teams in the top navigation bar.
2. If you've selected Portfolios, Solutions, Programs, or Teams in the top navigation bar, select the entity you want to view information about.
   Note: The backlog for stories and defects can only be displayed for programs or teams.
3. On the sidebar, select Backlog in the list of page options; the backlog page displays.
4. On the sidebar, use the Time dropdown to select a time period for your backlog view.
5. From the Viewing drop-down menu on the Backlog page, select the work item for which you want to view the backlog.

Notes:

• After navigating to the page, you can use the Extra Configs menu to filter by additional entities.
• When a single team or multiple teams are selected, you will see the current and the next sprint for each team. If teams are within the same program, you cannot select a program. If the selected teams span different programs, you need to select a program.
• When a single or multiple programs or solutions are selected, you will see the current and the next upcoming PI for each of the selected programs or solutions.
• If any level of the team hierarchy is selected as well as a PI, you will only see the selected PI for each selected team, program, solution, or portfolio.
