How to create an auto assign to previous assignee in Jira?

[alexxkey]

I don't know how create auto assignment to previous assignee using custom field and post function when I change issue status (or dragging it to other status column on the board). Here, at this community a read other comments, but there is still no clear understanding except "create custom field" and use post function.

Can somebody explain me how to do that in detail? Like "chose that menu, click certain button, then go to some settings etc"? I can use post function to assign next assignee, but don't know how to assign previous.

Here I illustrate what I mean.

Thanks in advance for help.

Jason,

You have quite a few options to accomplish most of your needs:

Development vs. Test time:

There are 2 plugins available in JIRA Extension Page which might be able to fulfill the requirement:

• JIRA Charts can report Average Time in Status
• The JIRA Suite Utilities has a Transitions Summary Tab Panel.

Developement vs. Test time effort independently:

You can either use jira reports or different transitions on the workflow and even different plugins:

• User Workload Report
• JIRA Suite Utilities
• Tempo

I hope it helps you! :)
