## What Send2Next Sprint does?

Send2Next Sprint is an app which allows you to move issues around easily within Jira Software from the Planning mode, the Active Sprint mode or the Detail View.

With Send2Next Sprint you can use shortcuts to move issues from the current sprint to the next or defer an issue to the sprint *after *the next sprint.

You can also use the post-functions to move tickets automatically into the current sprint or into the next upcoming sprint.

## Send2Next Sprint and Jira Software Scrum Agile boards

### In Active Sprints view

In the *Active Sprint*s view of Jira Software you can:

- highlight an issue and use "[s]+[n]" to send an issue to the next scheduled sprint that has not been started.
- control - click or right click the issue and choose the *Next Sprint* option

### In Backlog

In the *Backlog* view of JIRA Software you can highlight an issue and:

- use "**[s]+[n]**" to send an issue to the **next scheduled sprint** that has not been started.
- use "**[s]+[c]**" to send an issue to the **current sprint**.
- use "**[s]+[d]**" to **defer** an issue to **two sprints after **the **current sprint**.

Alternatively control - click or right click the issue and choose the relevant option

## Send2Next Sprint in post functions

### Adding a post function to a transition

Automate your ticket flow by moving tickets around between sprints.

1. Once Send2NextSprint is installed two post-functions will be available:
  1. "Move issue to current sprint", and
  2. "Move issue to next sprint".
2. Decide what *Workflow transitions* should trigger the relevant post function and add the post function to this transition.  
Result: Whenever the transition occurs the post function is triggered.

Enjoy moving things around in the backlog mode of JIRA Software even more than before!
