How do you set 'working days' on a business project in Jira

Paul Treadwell

I have a Jira 'business project' and want to make the timeline view more useful by setting Saturday and Sunday as non-working days. Currently it shows as if the team works weekends.

If it was a 'software project' I could do that via the board configuration. I don't have that option for a business project.

Hi @Paul Treadwell

While business projects currently don't support setting up non-working days, you may want to take a look at TeamBoard ProScheduler.

This app supports you in marking non-working days, and also hides weekend days in the timeline. ProScheduler also has other detailed options to help you customize your timeline.

Give it a try and see how it works, I'm always here to help 🙌

Cheers,

Hey @Paul Treadwell 

I'm sure for business projects the only way to do this would be on a global level, which would obviously effect your entire instance

As you've touched on you can set calendars in other types of project. 

Thanks

Aaron.

I've just had a look at there isn't a global setting for this, was pretty sure there would have been. But it would make sense there wouldn't be seeing as over project types have a way to do this granularly. 

Sorry.
