**As** an agile user
**I want to** activate multiple sprints at the same time
**so that** multiple teams can work within the same project at the same time

**Permissions and visibility considerations**

* \[open\] permission necessary for configuring using multiple active sprints in the project - &quot;Share Begin of the insertionsprint&quot;? End of the insertion Begin of the deletion sprint&quot;?&nbsp;End of the deletion


**Translation considerations**

* _Key terms and phrases in the key languages_


**Out of scope**

* Sharing sprints and multiple active sprints active at the same time within the project

* Reporting functionality that requires knowing the continuity of sprints,

* e.g. all those belonging to &quot;Team A&quot; to calculate a velocity chart

* Assigning a sprint to a team

* Changes to the close sprint functionality
