SAFe Board — Team level
concept australia Updated Sep 10, 2026 3 min read team-level-tabs.md
As a team member, you can plan and monitor activities within your team by accessing the Team level on the SAFe Board.
The Team level includes the following tabs:
- Backlog
- Sprint Tracking
Backlog
The Backlog tab enables you to plan and prioritize stories for a sprint or multiple sprints by assessing stories in the backlog.
In addition, you can:
- Create stories.
- Reorder stories in the backlog using the drag feature. The story at the top of the backlog assumes higher priority with a lesser rank value. The story at the bottom of the backlog assumes lower priority with a higher rank value.
- Filter stories by a feature.
- Type a keyword in the search box to view only stories whose details match with the keyword.
- Create, organize, monitor, start, and complete sprints.
- View current and future sprints in chronological order.
- View these key aspects of a sprint: planned start and end dates, number of story points (total, complete, and pending) for the current sprint.
- Assess stories in the backlog and drag them to sprints.
- Move unfinished stories from the completed sprint to the backlog or a future sprint.
Note: To see the backlog of your team on SAFe Board, ensure that your team is:
- Of the group type SAFe Team, with the role safe_scrum_user assigned to the team members
- Added to Agile Release Trains

Sprint Tracking
The Sprint Tracking tab provides the following views:
-
Story board
Story board is built on visual task boards, which transform the navigation of lists and forms into an interactive graphical experience. The visual task board interface provides a graphic-rich environment suited for managing and collaborating records. To know more about the actions that can be performed in the board, see Visual Task Boards. In addition, you can:
- Track all the stories of the current sprint across lanes.
- Move stories from one lane to another, which in turn updates the state of the stories.
- Filter stories based on search criteria.
-
Task board
Task board enables you to track all the scrum tasks of stories of the current sprint across lanes.
- Move scrum tasks from one lane to another, which in turn updates the state of the scrum tasks.
- Filter scrum tasks based on search criteria.
-
List
List displays scrum tasks and tests associated to stories in each sprint. You can:
- Add scrum task and tests without leaving the context of the record.
- View the state, short description, and assignee of the scrum task without drilling down into details.
- View the short description and run result of a test.
- Assess scrum tasks and tests that are pending before the closure of current sprint. [Omitted image "team-list.png"] Alt text: Sprint Tracking List
