JIRA JQL: assignee was xxx during (date1, date2) returns incorrect results

[Royce Wong]

I am using JIRA 4.4.5. I am trying use JQL to find issues that was assigned to a user: xxxx during a specific period of time.

I have this JQL:

assignee was xxxx DURING ("2014/01/01", "2014/01/31")

First question:

The result set includes closed issues from 2013, I double checked and opened up those issues from 2013 and they have no change history in 2014 at all. Anyone expereinced the same thing? What could be wrong? Is it a bug?

Second question:

Will the JQL above returns issues assigned to xxxx on 2013/12/01 and are still assign to xxxx today (no assignee change between those dates)?
I am aware of JQL's CHANGED TO, but doing 'assignee changed to xxxx DURING ("2014/01/01", "2014/01/31")' won't be right becuase I also want to include issues assigned to xxxx on 2013/12/01 and are still assign to xxxx today.

Thanks in advance.

AND assignee was not xxxx before "2014/01/01" AND assignee was xxxx before "2014/02/01"

That JQL gives me the correct answer.

I want to see tickets that were assigned to a resource today or =>StartOfDay(), how can I see that?

assignee changed to xxx after startOfDay()

I used the below JQL (thanks to @Udo Brand):

category in (Retainer, "Support and Maintenance") and assignee changed TO (sandhya, vijay, swanand, Nikhil, asad, jahanzeb) after startOfDay() and status not in (Resolved, Completed, Closed, Done) order by created ASC

The result is that one of my overseas teams can see their workload and tickets newly assigned to them no matter what status they are in except Resolved, Completed, Closed or Done.

hmm, I guess you query will return all issues where xxx was assignee in that period. So your issues closed in 2013 had still an assignee xxx in 2014, correct? So that is no bug.

To your second question (issues assigned to xxxx on 2013/12/01 and are still assigned to xxxx today (no assignee change between those dates))

assignee changed to xxx on "2013/12/01" and not assignee changed after "2013/12/02"

That should give what you need,or?
