Release using date range

[Martin Hemi]

I'm using JIRA next-gen project.  

I see that next-gen says to add the version into the 'fix version' field for each issue or in backlog drop and drag. Then release.

From my previous use of JIRA I could select a date range for a release and issues within that range that are 'DONE' will be released.  Does next-gen do this or is this a configuration issue and if so, how do I implement this, as it doesn't seem to work?

cheers

Hey Martin,

I don't recall seeing that in my use of next-gen. To do this though you could find all issues resolved within the time frame eg project = xyz and resolved > "2020/12/08 00:00" AND resolved < "20206/12/12 00:00"

Then perform a bulk change and add the fix version that way?

that search didnt work?

ive now released by dragging one done issue at a time. Then i released and even archived but they still appear as done on the board??

Oh that sounds painful! Ahhh yeah just checking a next-gen project and that JQL won't work :( 

You could try this one

project = "XYZ" AND status = Done and resolutiondate <= 30d

That shows all "done" items in the last 30 days, you could refine that if you wish. 

Also re next-gen versioning - it doesn't remove the task when you release the version like in classic (on kanban), however giving the new automation function a go could perhaps give you what you want?

[Martin Hemi]

where do I find the new automated function?

[Ash Pitt]

It should be visible to access via that icon on the top right of your screen, or you should be able to access it under Project Settings > Apps > Project automation
