Manage versions
Versions will be used, e.g. for roadmap planning to track certain product versions or releases. Work packages can be assigned to a version. They will be displayed in the Roadmap.
Also, version will be used to enable the Backlogs module, i.e. to create a product backlog and sprints in OpenProject.
Read here how to create a new backlogs version.
Create a new version
Press the green + Version button to create a new version for a project.
You can configure the following information.
- Set a name for the version.
- Add a description to specify the version.
- Set status of a version, the default status is open.

- Set a start date and finish date for the version.
