exporting backlogs with sprint tabs

Chris McCartney fa 13 anys • updated by Matthew O'Riordan (Founder) fa 12 anys • 4
Hi,

I've started using easybacklog properly over the past week, and like the export to excel for other people in the business. However it would be great if in addition to the whole backlog you could have multiple tabs of each sprint. The backlog export has a number of headers and blank rows meaning you can't just filter on a sprint which would be the other way of doing it.

Thanks 
Chris

Hi Chris
Thanks for the good idea.  We've taken on board your suggestion and modified the export feature of easyBacklog now so that it does the following:
  • Uses Microsoft Xml Xls format for the spreadsheet allowing more complex spreadsheets to be built so that we could support this feature
  • We now create two Worksheet Tabs when you export your Backlog, the first one "Backlog Report" is very similar to what you saw before.  However, the second one "Story List" is a complete list of stories without spaces, and an Auto-filter applied  to the top header row so you can filter the stories as you wish.
I hope this is what you were after.  I think it's a nice improvement to the old Export system.
Thanks again for the feedback.

Hi Matt,

I've been trying this feature today and it's not quite exporting right. The first tab is as before. The second tab strips out a lot of the blank cells, but it also strips out a number of the records. It looks like whichever user story is listed first in a theme is also taken out. Where only one user story is present for a theme that also goes.

Otherwise this does the job nicely,

THanks

Hi Chris

Do you mind sending me the export and ID of your backlog?  You can just email it to support at easybacklog.com.  If there is a problem we'll get it fixed ASAP.
