# Scrum of scrums and art-sync preparation

### Scrum of scrums and art-sync preparation

A program is followed up with a Scrum of Scrums (meeting between program management and the scrum masters) or the Art-Sync (meeting between program management, product management, scrum masters and product owners).

To prepare for the Scrum of Scrums / art Sync:

* Update the scrum board of the team
* Complete the sprint at program level
* Update RAG (Red-Amber-Green) indicators, risks and issues

### Update the scrum board of a team

A scrum team normally keeps its scrum board up to date continuously. This should not be done just before the meeting.

To update the sprint and close stories:

* Click on ***Projects*** in the top navigation bar, and select the project of the team (Or – alternatively – click on the team name in the program navigation bar)
* Select ***Active Sprints*** in the left navigation bar
* Drag and drop stories to the done / closed / … column

### Complete the sprint at program level

In Jira, sprints are manually flagged as completed.

Sprints closed at program level don’t affect or close a sprint at team level.

To complete a sprint at program level:

* Click on &#x50;***rograms*** in the top menu bar
* Select the ***program*** and ***period*** in the top of the navigation bar
* Click on **Period config** in the left navigation bar
* Click on the **completed** column next to the sprint and check the checkbox
* Click on **Save**
