I would like to ask about how to create fields. I want to create fields like the following, but I’m not sure which options to select or how to configure them.

1. Tickets that have been open for more than X days
Example: I want to display tickets that have been open for more than 3 days on the dashboard.

2. Tickets with X days elapsed since the last update
Example: I want to display tickets on the dashboard that haven’t had any action taken for more than 3 days.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could explain the setup method in detail. Thank you very much.

Hello @保守管理者 

You would not create fields to get that information. You would create a filter.

Here is a reference document that talks about how to create filters to search for items.

 https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/search-for-work-items-in-jira/

 

There is a basic interface and an Advanced interface. The documentation explains the two interfaces.

 

Using the Advanced interface, a filter to find the items that have been open for more than three days would be:

created <= -3d and statusCategory != Done

A filter for items that have not been updated in X days would be similar:

updated <= -Xd and statusCategory != Done

...where you would replace "X" with the number of days.

If you wanted to limit the results to a specific Space you would add

AND project="name of Space"

 

You can save the filters and then you them in the configuration of Gadgets on Jira Dashboards.

You can find on-demand free training courses on these topics from the Learning link at the top of the Community pages.

6. Choose columns (Key, Summary, Status, Assignee, Created)

Requirement 2

Step 1: Create Filter

Go to Advanced Search → JQL and enter: statusCategory != Done

-3d → no updates in last 3 days

Save it.

Note - But you need to change the days in JQL.
