# Enhancements

These new enhancements streamline the planning process and provide greater flexibility for teams.

## Game Management

### Save and Finish

The **Save** button is enabled when unestimated items are in the game backlog. In this situation, a specific button is provided for finishing the game.

The **Save & Finish **button** **will only be visible if users estimate the last item from the backlog and all items above it have been estimated.

### Direct Jira Access

After completing a game, users can easily navigate to Jira to view estimated items by clicking the **Open issues in Jira** button.

## Game Cloning

### Backlog Duplication

When cloning a game, users now have the option to duplicate the game backlog as well, preserving the existing issue list for the new game.
