The planning of stories can be done in the project backlog of the team, or directly on the program board. ### Plan a work item on the Program Board To plan a work item, simply drag it to a sprint.

{% hint style="info" %} Planning a story directly updates the sprint of the issue in Jira (for teams working scrum), or the due date (for teams that are working kanban). {% endhint %} {% hint style="info" %} The stories that are visible on the board depend on the epics (features) added to the PI. It also depends on the team, program and period (program increment) scope configuration settings. {% endhint %} {% hint style="info" %} Stories created in Jira will be visible after refreshing the Program Board. Click on the 'Refresh' button in the top navigation bar for a quick refresh. {% endhint %} ### Plan per team Use the [team breakout](/pi-planning/team-breakout.md) view to create a plan for a specific team in the PI. This view shows the plan for the selected team, and its dependencies with other teams.\
