Mister Femi November 9, 2023

Hello, I get an error message when I run this query to find out how many epics weee delivered 30 days before or after it a date but get an error message and it doesn’t run. What am I doing wrong? 
Thanks 

Team = Atlas AND issuetype =
Epic AND status = Done AND
resolved >= startOfDay(-30d) AND resolved <= startOfDay(+ 30d)

Hi @Mister Femi ~ what is the error message?

Mister Femi November 9, 2023

@Laurie Sciutti Here is the error message: Error in the JQL Query. The character ‘+’ is a reserved JQL character. You must enclose it in a string or use the escape ‘\u002b’ instead.

ah.  @Mister Femi ~ Firstly, you can't have anything resolved 30 days in the future.....

@Mister Femi ~ you could try using hours, but be sure to include it in quotes. 

 

resolved <= startOfDay("+8h")

@Laurie Sciutti  Thanks, I see your point. Back to main objective, can you suggest a query for epics resolved 30days before or after the target end date?

@Mister Femi ~ it should look something like this (depending on what your Target End Date field resolves to / is named in your JQL):

 

Team = Atlas AND issuetype = Epic AND statuscategory = Done AND
"Target end" >= startOfDay(-30d) AND "Target end" <= startOfDay("+30d")

@Mister Femi ~ more accurately than my previous response:  if you are looking for issues resolved within a date range specified in another date field (i.e. Target end date), I believe this would require a plugin (like ScriptRunner), which allows for date comparisons.  If you use ScriptRunner, you could include something like:

 

issueFunction in dateCompare("", "resolved <= 'target end' +30d") and issueFunction in dateCompare("", "resolved >= 'target end' -30d")
issueFunction in dateCompare("", "resolutionDate < dueDate +1w")

Thanks @Laurie Sciutti You are a star. Thanks. Sadly, my org restricts plugins. So will try the query you suggested. Much appreciated
