Can a custom date field be used and map to Jira Work Management Timeline View and Calendar View

[Denise Ellis]

In JWM it seems issues are displayed and mapped to the Timeline View and Calendar view when the Jira default "Start date" and "Due date" fields are used and filled in.

Is it possible to use a custom field of field type - date picker to be used by the Timeline View and Calendar View? eg if I create a custom field "Next start date" and "Next due date".

Right now issues only seem to be shown in the Timeline and Calendar view of a JWM project when using the default fields

Hi @Denise Ellis 

Not that I know of.

The "Basic Roadmap" and calendar view use one set of fields (Start Date/Due Date). 

This differs to "Advanced Roadmaps" in Jira Premium, where a custom set of date pickers can be used.

Thanks @Ste Wright 

Based on my readings, I would agree that just not possible atm.

I'll also note here, if helpful for future community readers that at present team-managed projects and Advanced Roadmaps are not yet fully integrated with each other. It might be coming as per this: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-20012
