Cannot find Active Sprint while creating new Scheduler Issue

Some of our clients are facing with problem that cannot find Active Sprint while creating new Scheduler Issue. This situation happen when Sprint field is added to the create issue in project A which is set as “company-managed”, but Sprints are not available in “company-managed” projects. Additionally software project B might used mixed board - using more than one project A, B, C, then although user can add issue from this project A to Sprint, it’s not designed to work this way.

Why The Scheduler can not find the active sprint if there exists?

The Scheduler is not able to find the sprint if you have got business project type. Sprints are not available in this kind type of project. To fix that you need to create new “Software” project and move all your issues to this new project, then recreate all scheduled issues.
