Customize sprint layouts | Zoho Sprints Help

Customize sprint layouts

The sprint creation form is composed of fields that help capture the sprint details that you need recorded. Zoho Sprints has a predefined standard layout that is applied by default. However, the form comes with a customizable layout. This enables you to include additional fields apart from the default fields. So, you can introduce custom fields into the form's layout based on your requirement. After you've customized the layout, your project details will display these field along with the default fields.
