jira product discovery and jira Plans

[Max_Clark]

Hey everyone I'm wanting to use the timeline function from Jira plans but bring in JPD projects, but start date and end date jira fields dont seem to be available?

any ideas how i can do this

Heya Max,

Do you mean you want to bring in different Start/End date fields in your Plan? 

You can add custom fields from your Jira instance to the Plan via the Plan settings

After adding in the date fields you want to use (assuming the same ones used in JPD), you can then set them as the start/end date fields used for scheduling in your plan.

I'd suggest checking the scheduling settings first - it may be that the fields are already there for selecting. Otherwise, try adding custom fields as noted in the reply.

more like i would like to use the start and end dates that exist already in Jira and my jira plan in the JPD projects
