# Backlog

A backlog is a list of issues or product requirements for implementation. Backlog issues are usually sorted by priority.

You can use the **Backlog** tab to store your team's critical issues, sort them by priority, and distribute them across sprints. You can create new issues or add existing ones to both the backlog and directly to a sprint. To move an issue from the backlog to a sprint, just drag its card from one list to another.

Track an issue's [validity](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/agile.md#tips) in the backlog: it should not contain any closed issues, duplicate issues, or issues that work cannot be started on in the near future.

In addition to backlog and sprint columns, you can create [custom columns](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/agile-columns.md#user-columns) and use them as an additional backlog with manually selected issues. For example, a custom column may contain issues to be discussed with the team members during the nearest planning or issue estimation (refinement).

## Enabling Agile tools {#add-backlog}

You can enable a backlog and other Agile tools on a Basic board. For instructions and limitations, see [Enabling Agile tools](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/boards-instruments.md#add-backlog).

## Adding issues to a backlog {#add-new-backlog}

You can add or create an issue from any queue that you have access to.

To add a single issue:

1. Decide where to add an issue (to the backlog or sprint) and click **+ Add issue** in the appropriate section.
1. Select an existing issue or create a new one right on the board.

To add a group of issues, such as all issues from a queue with a certain assignee, use issue auto-import:

1. On the board, click **Settings** → **Automatic issues import and removal**.
1. Under **Adding issues to the board**, click **+ Add parameters**. Select a parameter from the list and set its value. For example, to add all issues where you are the assignee to the board, select the **Assignee** parameter and set it to **Me**. To add more parameters, repeat the step.

You can also add a group of issues using [bulk edits](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/agile-issues.md#bulk):
1. On the [issue search](https://tracker.yandex.com/issues) page, check the boxes next to the issues you want to select.
1. In the panel with bulk issue actions that opens at the bottom of the screen, click ![](../_assets/svg/actions.svg)</svg> → **Add to board**. Search for the appropriate board by name and click **Apply**.

## Add a column to the backlog {#columns}

In addition to backlog and sprint columns, you can create custom columns and use them as an additional backlog section with manually selected issues. For example, a separate backlog column can hold issues that need to be discussed with the team during the nearest planning or issue estimation session.

To add a column:

1. In the left panel, click ![](../_assets/svg/boards.svg)</svg> **Issue boards** and select a board.
1. Open the **Backlog** tab.
1. To the right of the **Backlog** column, click the ![](../_assets/svg/add-icon.svg)</svg> **Add column** button.
1. Enter a column name and click **Add**.
1. If you need to limit the number of issues in an additional column, to the right of its name, click ![](../_assets/svg/actions.svg)</svg> → ![](../_assets/svg/icon-edit.svg)</svg> **Edit** and specify the maximum number of issues.

## Filtering issues {#filter}

Like on the issue boards, you can perform the following actions on the backlog page:

* [Filter issues](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/agile-issues.md#filter)

* [Group issues](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/agile-issues.md#group)

* [Sort issues](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/agile-issues.md#sorting)

## How to remove issues from the backlog {#delete-task-from-backlog}

1. Hover over the issue you want to delete.

1. Click ![](../_assets/svg/actions.svg)</svg> → **Remove from backlog**.
