Time to release with number of open defects

[7ntO]

Is there any known plugin/tool to Jira which could allow me to present entered number of days left to final release + information about open defects taken from jql ? Thanks!

Hello @7ntO

Where do you want to present this information, on issues or on dashboards? 

Also, can you please elaborate more on

"present entered number of days left to final release "

[7ntO]

It is not important for me where it could be presented - the most important for me is that it will be presented somehow.

Sure, I would like to have possibility to set number of days left to release (as far as I know there is no proper field to set it directly in Jira?), because I would like to use it for tracking progress of defect fixing. 

Am I more precise right now?

Thanks for your time!

As you have shared

This is something you can easily achieve by adding a custom field in Jira of type number. You can create a custom field and add the number value. In JIra the fields are added at issue level.

If you want can also use plugin like Script Runner plugin to use Script fields which displays the number of days dynamically based on the formula (Release date of the fixVersion minus currentDate) to give the difference in terms of number of days
