Program settings

To manage program settings:

2. On the left side of the page, select Platform in the Settings section.
3. Select the Program tab.

In Jira Align, you can configure the following program settings:

• Hide Feature Sorting: Controls visibility of the feature sort in the program backlog. The epic sort and stand-alone feature sort is always available. Depending on your process, you may or may not want to sort features within the epics.
• Use Global F/E Sorting: Controls visibility of the All Epics and Features sort in the program backlog for a PI. Most organizations sort backlogs at the program level.
• Use Global Stories Sorting: Controls visibility of the All Stories sort in the program backlog for a PI. Most organizations sort backlogs at the program level.
• Enable Conversations: Turns on or turns off the collaboration option in the application. Collaboration is highly encouraged in agile environments; however, some organizations want to keep collaboration in email or other applications.
• HotFix Bandwidth: Controls the desired bandwidth for hotfixes, fast tracks, and service packs. The concept is to limit the work in process to this threshold.
