Terminology sets

All major objects in Jira Align can be renamed to more closely match your processes, especially when working with external tools such as Jira, Team Foundation Server, or others. You can configure different terminology sets according to such frameworks as SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework), DAD (Disciplined Agile Delivery), and LeSS (Large-Scale Scrum), depending on what system your company uses. Or you can use the system default terminology.

The following table shows how terms are named according to different terminology sets. You can configure terminology in your platform terminology settings.
