How do I use teams in plans?
This page refers to the advanced planning features that are only available as part of Jira Cloud Premium and Enterprise.
The work in your plan needs to be completed by someone, and Teams are how you designate who will do what. You can assign work to teams, monitor their capacity and velocity, and show or hide work based on team assignments.
To view the teams in your plan, select the Teams tab from the left navigation menu.
Your plan uses two types of teams:
Atlassian teams are available across either your whole site or your entire organization. Anyone can add an Atlassian team to their plan, and model future work based on capacity, overall availability, and the members of the team. Read more about Atlassian teams
Plan-only teams live within the plan in which they were created. Any issue assignments or changes to work you’ve made in your plan can’t be saved until you convert it to an Atlassian team. Find out how to convert plan-only team to an Atlassian team.
Read how to view and edit teams in your plan.
External teams
If you remove a team from your plan, issues still assigned to them have the EXT. TEAM lozenge next to the team name. This indicates that this team isn’t represented in your plan and that this issue represents an external dependency.
You can fix this by adding the team back to your plan or reassigning the issues.
