Tags: Tags Trackers Workflow

Remove Release / Sprint Tags

This page describes the operation of the Remove Release / Sprint Tags workflow action.

The Remove Release / Sprint Tags workflow action is available since codebeamer release 9.3.0 for Release trackers.

Operation

By using the Remove Release / Sprint Tag workflow action, you can specify certain release or sprint tags to be removed from release or sprint items once a specific state transition is performed for a release or a sprint.

You can specify, for instance, that the tag "Sprint_activated" should be removed from all work items within a release or a sprint once the Finish action (for example, transition from Active to Finished) is performed for the release or sprint.

The Remove Release / Sprint Tag workflow action can also be used to transfer items from one sprint to another automatically when a specific state transition is performed for a sprint.

For example, you can specify that whenever the status of a sprint is set to Finished, all the work items of that sprint in In progress status should be moved to the next sprint, while all Open (not started) items should be moved to the Release Backlog.

Tags	Specify the tag(s) to be removed from release or sprint items when a specific state transition is performed. You can specify any number of tags separated by semicolons (;). Besides using existing values, new values can also be created in this field.
