Manage stories and issues on the Scrum board

You can move a story or issue from the Scrum board to another iteration or to the backlog, or delete it from the Scrum board. When you delete a story or issue, it is moved to the Recycle Bin for 30 days and can be recovered only by the system administrator.

To remove a task or issue from the iteration without deleting it or sending it to the backlog, go to the project and remove the agile team from the assignment column. This removes the task or issue from the Scrum board, but it remains on the project.
