Hi @mounika smith

I'd love to understand your requirements a little bit better, but from what I read, my first reaction is that most if not all of these things should be available in Advanced Roadmaps (AR). Since you're talking about initiatives, I feel you may already use AR? If so, what of your requirements is missing in AR?

For apps from the Atlassian Marketplace: There'll be several options, but I can only speak for the app that my team is working on, JXL for Jira; in JXL, all these things should be easy to do. I'll provide more information below.

Kind regards,

Hannes

Just to expand on the second point: JXL is a full-fledged spreadsheet/table view that allows viewing, inline-editing, sorting, and filtering by all your issue fields, much like you’d do in e.g. Excel or Google Sheets. It also comes with a number of advanced features, including the support for (configurable) issue hierarchies, issue grouping, sum-ups, conditional formatting, and export to Excel or CSV.

With these, you can build very powerful, interactive reports, like this one:

This would work with any issue field, including all the fields that you mentioned. You could also use conditional formatting to highlight rows/issues that are overdue, etc. etc.

Since you've tagged your question for Jira Server: As you may have heard, app sales have ended for Jira Server. Are you planning to migrate to Data Center or Cloud? I'd strongly recommend that. If you need some more time, JXL is perfectly compatible with Jira Server; it's just that we need to generate a license for you. If the above looks interesting, just let me know, and I'll happily start a free trial for you.
