## Description

# Description

**as** an OpenProject user  
**I want** to have an overview on all tasks included in a (global) sprint/version, independent in which project they are residing  
**so that** the team managing multiple smaller projects, has a global view on the status of the version.

# Current behavior

*   A version/sprint can be created in a project, and shared with all projects. _\[as expected\]_
*   Tasks/Stories from other projects can be assigned to this version. _\[as expected\]_

**In Backlogs**

*   The versions are shown, including originating from other projects _\[as expected\]_
*   In the taskboard: only tasks from current project are shown _\[request to be changed\]_
*   In the burndown chart: only tasks from current project are shown _\[request to be changed\]_

**In Roadmap**

*   The version is shown. _\[as expected\]_
*   If the version is originating from another project; the project\_name is integrated in the version name. _\[as expected\]_
*   The total number of open / closed tasks are shown (across all projects) _\[as expected\]_
*   The “related workpackages” only lists the tasks from the current selected project, instead of all included in the sprint _\[request to be changed\]_
*   When following link “x open”; the overview in Workpackages is opened in the project where the version is originating from. Only tasks of that project are in the overview _\[request to be changed\]_

# Acceptance criteria

**In Backlogs**

*   In the taskboard: all tasks in the version are shown _\[Priority 1\]_

# Nice to have

**In Backlogs**

*   In the burndown chart: all tasks in the version are shown _\[Priority 2\]_

**In Roadmap**

*   The “related workpackages” list of all tasks, with a reference to the originating project (name before / after workpackage number and name) _\[Priority 3\]_
*   When following link “x open”; an overview of all tasks in the version is shown. _\[Priority 4\]_

# References (similar requests)

*   A similar request. Differing from the request though; I do not see a full list of workpackages in the roadmap (as per screenshot above): https://community.openproject.com/projects/openproject/work\_packages/17189/activity.
*   A discussion on the forum describing the request: https://community.openproject.com/topics/3236  
    Althought there seemed to be some support for the idea, the linked Pull Request is still on hold? https://github.com/finnlabs/openproject-backlogs/pull/233 This pull request is only focussing on subprojects though…
*   A similar request, focussed on sharing across subprojects, which is still a limitation which I do not see the need for. https://community.openproject.com/projects/plugin-backlogs/work\_packages/22319/activity
*   A similar request. also focussed on subprojects only: https://community.openproject.com/projects/plugin-backlogs/work\_packages/24971/activity
*   A request to remove limiting project\\\_id in the selection criteria of the overview; which might enable the requested functionality?: https://community.openproject.com/projects/plugin-backlogs/workpackages/24038/activity  
    I tried the suggested hack, without success though, which might be related to the fact that the tasks are from different projects (not only subproject-relationship).

# Next steps

*   I highly value your efforts and the Openproject software and hope by bringing this together, the software can be enhanced even further. I do think this is a key feature.
*   I am not a programmer, so not able to dig in this myself. I will post a Bounty to create a Pull Request for this additional feature.
