Hi Everyone,
I have recently started to use Jira On-Demand.
-Let's say I have two issues with an estimate of 4 days of work
-The due date and/or next milestone is 4 days from now.
-Issue #1 is now in progress and therefore should be completed within the deadline.
-Issue #2 will not be completed on time.
-The engineer is working on a new issue #3 that is blocking issue #2 and will require one day of work.
What is the best way in JIRA to automatically change the milestone or due date based on the bug status & estimates? For example, if my milestone or due date is on March 7th and we still needs 3 days of engineering work, it should be pushed to March 10th. Also, is there a way to automatically integrate the new "blocker" bug into the current milestone?
Support told me that there is no way at this time to create a new bug or tasks from an e-mail. (e.g. The engineer is logging issue #3 by sending an email that will automatically populate JIRA with the appropriate fields) Does anyone have recommendations to go around this current limitation?
Thanks for your help,
Cheers,
Nathalie
