**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

#### **Acceptance criteria**

* **If configured for the project, multiple sprints can be activated at the same time.**

* There is no limit to how many sprints can be activated

* The functionality for activating sprints is unchanged, i.e. a board is created when activating and the status is changed.

* Within the project administration of backlogs, a user can configure to have multiple active sprints in the project. 

* **In project settings,**

* Rename "Backlogs" to "Backlog and sprints"

* Rename "Sprint sharing" tab to "Sprints"

* Add a setting to enable/disable multiple active sprints.

* This will be a Begin of the insertionsectionEnd of the insertion Begin of the deletion blockEnd of the deletion titled 'Number of active sprints' after the sharing options with Begin of the insertiona toggle ("Allow multipleEnd of the insertion Begin of the deletion two radio options:

* SingleEnd of the deletion active Begin of the insertionsprints").

End of the insertion Begin of the deletion sprint

End of the deletion * Begin of the deletion Multiple active sprints

* End of the deletion These options will only be available when 'Don't share' is selected in the 'Sprint sharing' section above.

* If any other option selected (i.e, the project is sharing is receiving sprints), the Begin of the insertiontoggle switch isEnd of the insertion Begin of the deletion options areEnd of the deletion not visible. Instead, an [InlineMessage](https://primer.style/product/components/inline-message/#tone-variants) (scheme: unavailable) informs the user that multiple active sprints are not available when sprint sharing or receiving is enabled.

* If multiple active sprints is enabled, the project no longer has the limitation of having just one sprint marked as active at any given time. It can have multiple sprints active in parallel.

* Activating the setting disables the possibility to change the sharing Begin of the insertionsettings.

End of the deletion * Begin of the insertionThe options will be replaced with an InlineMessage.

* End of the insertion If there are currently multiple active sprints running, the setting cannot be changed Begin of the insertion

* Before activating, a danger confirmation dialog asks if the user understand that the action is non-revertible.

**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;? 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
