A checklist before starting a sprint
Starting a sprint should not merely attach dates to an unprepared list. The goal, scope and ownership need to be understandable at the start.

How to apply it
Open the relevant team sprint in Taskending. Review dates, goal, capacity and selected issues. Check team and project relationships. Before starting, identify major dependencies and the people responsible for review.
A concrete example
If the report design is not ready, do not assume every implementation task can start simultaneously. Separate independent work and name the person following the design decision. Keep the support allowance visible too.
What to watch for
An imported sprint marked active may be historical. Evaluate dates and actual team usage together. Do not reuse an old sprint simply because it makes the new plan easier to enter.
How to check the outcome
Open the sprint filter after starting. Expected issues, dates and status should appear, and teammates should understand the goal without another clarification meeting.
