After reading the blog posts and associated ebook, I'd like to implement what is described. However, there's one thing I can't figure out and I'm hoping someone can help.
Although the series of barcodes (say 10,000) can be printed off in advance, I can't figure out how the creation of issues would work. Upon scanning an unused barcode, the issue wouldn't exist yet, so I get an error "this issue can't be viewed'.
The blog series says "Note: The creation date for the issue in JIRA using our method will be the date of print of the label. Thus, we have an additional custom field called the date of purchase that reflects the acquisition date for the asset." This indicates that the 10,000 issues are created upfront.
How do I create 10,000 empty issues upfront? Alternatively, can anyone suggest another way to do this?
