Remove Release / Sprint Tags

Using this workflow action (from codeBeamer 9.3.0), you can specify that certain release or sprint tags should be removed from release/sprint items when a specific state transition is performed for a release or sprint. For example, you can specify that the tag "Sprint_activated" should be removed from all work items within a release/sprint when the Finish action (for example, transition from Active to Finished) is performed for the release/sprint.

You can also use this workflow action to automatically transfer items from one sprint to another when a specific state transition is performed for a sprint. For example, you can specify that whenever a sprint is set to Finished, all the work items in the sprint that are "In progress" should be moved to the next sprint, while all "Open" (not started) items should be moved to the Release Backlog.

This workflow action is only available for Release trackers.


When you select this action from the action selector, you can specify the following:

  • Tags (mandatory field): the tag(s) that you want to remove from release or sprint items when a specific state transition is performed. You can specify any number of tags in this field, using a semi-colon to separate the values. It is possible to use existing values in this field or to create new values.
  • Move In Progress Items (mandatory field): this option specifies if "In progress" items are moved to another sprint or to a backlog when a specific state transition is performed. The following values are available:
    • Do Not Move: if this value is selected, items are not moved to any other sprint or backlog when a specific state transition is performed for a sprint.
    • Current Sprint: if this value is selected, items are moved to the sprint which is tagged as "Current sprint".
    • Release Backlog: if this value is selected, items are moved to the Release Backlog.
    • Product Backlog: if this value is selected, items are moved to the Product Backlog.
  • Move Open Items (mandatory field): this option specifies if "Open" (not started) items are moved to another sprint or to a backlog when a specific state transition is performed. The available values in this field are the same as those for the Move In Progress Items field.
