I want to integrate an excel in JIRA

[Zeineb Bouassida]

I want to put on JIRA a whole departement in a company that has their process on Excel, how to know which JIRA product is the adequate and how do I adapt the process on Excel to fit on Jira ?

Hi @Zeineb Bouassida

welcome to the community!

This may not directly answer your question, but I thought may be interesting regardless: If you are considering to move people and/or processes from Excel to Jira (any Jira product, really), there's a couple of options available from the Atlassian Marketplace that could make this considerably easier.

E.g., my team and I work on an app named JXL for Jira, which aims to combine the power of Jira with the simplicity of spreadsheets; put simply, it's is a full-fledged table view for your issues 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.

This is how it looks in action:

Note that this is really just the basics of JXL - on top of it's base spreadsheet features, you can e.g. view your issues in configurable hierarchies, group them by any issue field(s), calculate sum-ups, or perform conditional formatting. 

As said above, there'll be other options from the Marketplace, too. You may already know that you can trial any app for free for 1 month, and depending on the size of your size, it may be free forever. So if an app is an option for your, perhaps try a few and see which works best for you.

Any questions just let me know,

Best,

Hannes
