How can you create a filter to surface issues that have been excluded from a portfolio plan?

Thomas Vladeck April 16, 2019

I would like to exclude issues from a portfolio, and then find them in JIRA, and then bulk edit them. 

It is infeasible to find them in JIRA first. 

It does not seem possible to do this in the issue filter, but it must be tracked somehow internally.

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for the feedback and that would be a useful feature. 

There are no options on Cloud to look this info up, but for anyone on server that comes across this post you could look this info up in the database in the Tables on   "AO_D9132D_EXCLUDED_VERSIONS" for the versions and the issue exclusions are saved in the "entity_property" table, so doing something like the following for the issues noting the entity_id aligns with the issue id on the jiraissue table:

SELECT * FROM entity_property WHERE ENTITY_NAME='IssueProperty' AND PROPERTY_KEY='jpo-exclude-from-plan'; 

For both cloud and server, currently when an issue is excluded from a plan you can edit the issue sources under the plan settings "Configure >> Issue Sources >> Edit Issue Sources" then the items that were excluded will show up as unselected, and you can manually review these items to get the list this way or re-add those items to to the plan by reselecting them and submitting the changes.

However, there are no other ways to generate a list of excluded issues, So I have created the following feature requests to track interest in this as a improvement moving forward, please make sure to add a vote to help track interest per the Implementation of New Features Policy:

Regards,
Earl
