Can someone please explain the behaviour of 'not status changed after -2d' and implicit times?

[James Birch]

Hi,

It seems rather difficult to find information on the implicit time syntax in JQL. Can anyone point me to the help documentation on this? I can't find it. Google tends to come up with community posts rather than the official help documentation.

(I'm English so using UK date format dd/MM/yyyy)

Anyway assuming the current time is 01/03/2019 15:11:

not status changed after -2d

will find statuses that haven't changed since 28/02/2019 00:00:00 (~ a day and a half ago)

Not 27/03/2019 15:11 or 27/02/2019 00:00:00

Whole time units are used as used in the query (in this case days). The time period is inclusive of the current partial period. 

Equivalents to the above:

endOfday(-2)

startOfDay(-1)

Other examples (hours):

not status changed after -48h

will find statuses that haven't changed since 27/02/2019 16:00:00 

not status changed after -49h

will find statuses that haven't changed since 27/02/2019 15:00:00

Both include current partial hour and work in complete hours.

Can someone confirm my understanding is correct?

Many thanks,

James
