Start new sprints whenever i want
Christian Sykes
Currently, sprints have to be started on specific dates only. For instance, we use 2-week sprints, so if my first sprint was created to start on 1 Sept 2025, the next sprint would have to start on 15 Sept. I'm not sure why you have forced this. In our situation, we reserve 1 week per quarter to breathe (i.e have no sprint). Aside from helping us re-focus, it also helps us fit to quarters. This means we would have 6x 2-week sprints followed by a single week where we have no sprint. Then we start again. What I'm basically asking for is not to add something but to let me start each sprint whenever I want.

Hi there Christian Sykes! Thanks for the post.
We have a setting in the Sprint's ClickApp called "Enable Custom Sprint Duration (beta)" which would allow you to update the start and end date of an upcoming sprint so that if you want to push back the start of the next sprint a week, you can!
To activate the Custom Sprint Duration option:
- Open the App Center.
- From the App Center's left sidebar, click All ClickApps.
- Browse or search for the Sprints ClickApp.
- Click Enable Custom Sprint Duration (beta).
Here is the full documentation for the feature and I hope it can unblock you!
