What is the the best way to create a filter that shows issues with NO due date?

Thank you

Hey Peter or Ali,

The fliter command I have for due date looks like the attached. I cannot typr EMPTY in it. Any idea please re how to fill in the boxes to get a filter of no due date?

Thank you! Steve

@SJ Hastings you'll need to "switch to JQL" in order to be able to type. Your screen shot is from the "basic search". Next to the search button click on "switch to JQL"

Hello, I have something similar. I'm trying to make a query that will provide me with issues that have no requested due date. In our tickets, we have a "Requested Due Date", so I have my query as such:

"Requested Due Date" is EMPTY OR duedate is EMPTY OR due is EMPTY

Yet, my dashboard still returns the exact same tickets even if they have a due date.

Update: if I search for issues with a query

project = XYZ and reporter = "XYZ" AND duedate is EMPTY OR "Requested Due Date" is EMPTY OR due is EMPTY

Then it actually works, I get all tickets assign to XYZ project, reporter is XYZ, and the tickets have no due dates. But in my dashboard, I still get tickets with due dates. I checked the rich filter, and I checked the gadget's filter as well. Nothing is different from the other custom queries I have made for my controller buttons. In theory, it should work just fine but it isn't.

Update 2: I was able to get this query to work for some reason:

"Requested Due Date" is EMPTY

I removed the other functions (correct term?) and left it with just one and it was able to give me what I wanted. I guess my logic with the longer query outputs not in the way I would like.
