Timeline Management
With our new timeline management function, you're able to drag cards over several sprints. With this function, you can visualize epics & features that span over a longer period then one sprint. Your cards then use the custom fields Start & Finish date that are already integrated on features in Azure DevOps.
Enabling Timeline Management
To enable the new function in your board:
Click on board settings -> Working with cards > Select start & finish date
- Working with cards - Click here to configure how you want the cards to work on the board
- Start & Finish date - Select this if you want to enable Start & finish date visualization on your board.
- Start date - Customize which field you want to work with for the start date - From load, our function uses Azure DevOps standard field
- Finish date - Customize which field you want to work with for the finish date - From load, our function uses Azure DevOps standard field

Read-only role
A frequent request from our users is to be able to limit user interaction in Scale.
With our new Read-only role you can allow users to view everything in scale but limit their action for editing or changing any information.
This role can be assigned to users in the user administration settings
