Syncing Jira Date Fields

Better Integration with Jira

Easy Agile Roadmaps for Jira can now synchronise issue schedules on the Roadmap with the Jira Start and Due Date fields.

In order to enable this integration, Easy Agile Roadmaps requires the mapped Start and Due Date fields to be present on the ‘Edit Issue Screen’ and ‘Create Issue Screen’. 

Mapping your Date Fields to the Roadmap Schedules

To synchronise the issue schedules in Easy Agile Roadmaps with the Jira date fields you want mapped to the Roadmap scheduled, your Jira Administrator will need to map both your desired Start and Due date fields in the Easy Agile Roadmaps configuration page.

Cloud

Jira Administration Menu > Manage Apps > Easy Agile Roadmaps > Configuration (located down the left hand side of the page).

Here, your Jira Administrator can easily navigate to the screen configuration pages for each date field, and ensure it is on the correct screens to be detected by Easy Agile Roadmaps. 

Server/Data Center

Jira Administration Menu > Manage Apps > Easy Agile Roadmaps > Configuration (located down the left hand side of the page).

Note: When no date field called ‘Start Date’ exists, Easy Agile Roadmaps will create one and use this to map to the 'Start Date' field. This newly created Start Date will need to be added to the appropriate screens before it can used by Easy Agile Roadmaps. 

This custom field can be deleted or renamed at anytime via ‘Fields’ under the Jira Administration menu. Easy Agile Roadmaps will not re-create this field should you choose to delete it.
