How change Release end date and time in Approve Release

[OLGA.SOLOKHA]

I have set a Approve Release for the version. This Approve Release has been approved. But the "Release end date and time" does not allow me to change it because it is overdue. Could you tell me how I can change this date?

Hi @OLGA.SOLOKHA 

In Jira, once a release has been approved and becomes overdue, the Release end date and time may become locked. You can give a try by updating the Release Date from the Release Settings. Navigate to Releases in your project, locate the approved version, and select Edit from the More actions menu. Then, simply update the Release Date and save your changes.

Besides, if the release is locked due to approval, check if you have permissions to Reopen the release. If enabled, you can reopen the release, change the date, and then reapprove it.

It's also possible that your Jira workflow is enforcing restrictions on changing release details after approval. If you suspect this is the case, you may need Jira Admin permissions to override the settings. Be sure to check with your Jira administrator to see if there are any restrictions preventing changes.

Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!
Thank you very much and have a great one!
Warm regards
