Hi, Anna!   
Does BP support Russian language?


author: Anna-BigPicture
body: Hi [@Maruf Mamurov](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4604711)  
At the moment, you can operate with an English-only interface language. However, we're committed to increasing the ease of use, and we are already working on the big initiative 'Multilingual App interface.'  
Please be informed that Russian will be one of the supported languages. You can follow work progress in the feature request ticket: [ONE-28378](https://jira.softwareplant.com/browse/ONE-28378). Please note that it is best to open it in the incognito tab of your browser.
Progress Bar
Asked by Maruf Mamurov:

Good time of the day, community.   

Is there any Jira add-on or feature which can show **progress** of task in the list or somewhere else?

body: [@Maruf Mamurov](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4604711) As far as I know you can add the original and remaining estimate, but not a progress/percentage bar.   

However, there are some reports that may help you. You could check the "Time tracking report" or the "Version workload report" (some documentation: <https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirasoftwarecloud/reporting-764478415.html> ).  

To have a more high-level view you can also have a look at the gadgets on the dashboard, "Jira Roadmap" for instance.  

But it also depends on what you want to show to the management, is it about a print, a version or some issues in particular.

Filter function
Asked by Carolin Scharke:

Hello!

In one of our sub-projects in Jira Big Picture, we use so-called "components" to subdivide the project.

If we use these components, the filtering (JQL and text) does not work. The result is greyed out headlines, but no real results. ![Bildschirmfoto 2022-02-16 um 21.21.28.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/183871i148D2AF85131242A/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Bildschirmfoto 2022-02-16 um 21.21.28.png")

We also get the follwing error message:

![Bildschirmfoto 2022-02-16 um 21.22.48.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/183872i81D743BB1C59A71E/image-dimensions/299x140?v=v2 "Bildschirmfoto 2022-02-16 um 21.22.48.png")

If we do not use components in other sub-projects, the filtering works without problems.

What is the reason for this and what can I do about it?

author: Curt Holley

Jira Work Management for recruitment: work with application and approval
Asked by ????? ????:

Hello!

We are currently examining the tool and hoping to receive some help.

The main tasks we need system for: application/request--\>work with the candidate (all steps)--\>approval

Can you describe how the system helps automate step 1(application/request) and step 3(approval)?

For us it's important to have 2 major points

* Transparency: a manager creates an application for a new job, than we need to have automatic transfer of the application into base with candidates that will be screened for that. After the recruiting process is finished and we are happy with the suitable candidate we need to approve it, send an offer, etc.
* Analytics: how many applications we had, we manaed to solve, how long it took, etc.

Could you please help me understand to what extent does the software help to solve these tasks?

Thank you in advance.

body: Hi [@????? ????](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4762054)

Your requirements are straight forward. Let me share few points.

1. Create project using the "Recruitment" template, it is just for your reference and to get you started quickly but configurations can be modified later.
2. Automatic transfer and approvals: Well this is controlled by the workflow, based on the information entered while creating the issue it can be auto assigned to someone or you can make it appear in a dashboard or may be setup notifications.
3. Analytics: Jira native reports can help you with that, you can use Created vs Resolved, two dimensional filter statistics, average time in status gadget in your dashboard.

For approvals you can also look at Jira Service Management based projects. There are lot of other things you can do like use automation rules as well for further enhancements to your process.

I hope it helps.

Is it possible to auto assign tasks based on a employee schedule?
Asked by Florian Meier:

Hi, I'm new to this community and just getting started with Jira. great to meet you all!

I am trying to solve the following problem with Jira.

We have set up an automated process that creates Jira tasks. We then want the open tasks to be automatically assigned to an available employee based on a work plan.

Is this possible with Jira or do you know of an add-on application that can do this?

Thank you very much for your answers.

Welcome to a community!

I'm Nataliya from [ActivityTimeline](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1220860/activitytimeline-resource-planning-time-tracking?hosting=cloud&tab=overview&utm_source=marketplace&utm_medium=community&utm_campaign=comments) team. Jira definitely doesn't solve such case. Our plugin has auto scheduler - the system automatically schedules (plans) Jira tasks you choose for optimal  
workload. You could choose which tasks you would like to auto-schedule: all assigned to a team/person or the filtered ones. In this case all issues should be previously assigned.   
For auto assigning only scriptrunner could fits more, I think.  


author: Dave Bosman [Realdolmen]
body: Hi [@Florian Meier](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4759531)

For as far as i know there are no plugins that can handle this.

And the function is not integrated within Jira

I think this is a scenario where you have to think outside of the box.

Is it a good idea? Is it easy to manage? probably not but here goes nothing.

You could create a new project where you add a ticket per user that you want to be assigned.

After that you can create an automation rule (with automation for Jira or scriptrunner) that is triggered when an issue is created. Let the it search for the matching issue in the new project and assign based upon the information that is stored there.

But as i said, it's probably not the best idea.

I'm interested in other workarounds that other people would come up with.

Dave

Images and Labels on Board View
Asked by Matt Price:

In Jira Work Management either Company Managed or Team Managed project the board view does not display images like a software based team project. Along with that I do not see the option to display the labels on the board view either.

See image below: This is the card view from a Team Managed Software project. I would like this functionality added to the company managed and team managed work management projects in Jira.

Answers:
author: Jack Brickey
body: You might provide that feedback to Atlassian via the in-app feedback link. Also, consider adding a fully featured Kanban board so that you can add "Images" to the cad layout. You can creat a separate board using a filter and set the location as your profile then add a link to it in your project sidebar using add item.

comments: author: Matt Price
body: I also provided feedback via the in-app link. So we will see how that turns out. The goal is to not have any software related projects or as few as possible so we only are paying for jira work management based licenses.


author: Jack Brickey
body: OK got it so you don't have the ability to create a separate kanban board in JWM I guess? ?


author: Matt Price
body: That is correct in JWM you only get the default board and are able to manipulate the swimlanes using workflow.


author: Jack Brickey
body: I bet it will be added in time. I could see it being used more in JWM than JSW. While I use images on Trello I never do in Jira products. I did a quick search in [JAC](https://jira.atlassian.com/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20JWMCLOUD%20%20AND%20text%20~%20%22images%22) but did not find any suggestion. Sort of surprising.

How to control automation flow from activity to next.
Asked by Jithesh:

In the below "Manually triggered" automation (refer image) we need the last action of updating Summary should run only after the UID is generated in 2nd step.

However as per the Log data (in Step 3), the last step of editing "Summary" is executed before the Training UID is getting updated. Is there a way to correct this?

May I know if you are not able to see the created issue or is it that you are not able to create the issues at all?

comments: author: Jack Brickey
body: Some screenshots would help.


author: Manuel K?bler
body: I wanted to create issue today. When logging into Jira I was informed about the new view <https://support.atlassian.com/jira-work-management/docs/what-is-the-new-jira-issue-create-experience/>. With this new issue create view I then created 20 issues. There was no message with the issue number and no error message. When I then switched to the issue overview, I found that the 20 issues could not be found. I can't find these 20 issues via the JIRA Rest Api either.


author: Jack Brickey
body: So if you simply use JQL - project = xxxxx (where xxxxx is your project) and sort on issue key do you not see the issues? If not and you are unable to create issues at all please report to Atlassian Support.


author: Manuel K?bler
body: I created this topic as a warning about the new view that it is still very buggy. Atlassian Support hasn't responded yet.


author: Jack Brickey
body: Thanks. I don't have any issues currently. So you are saying you cannot create any issues? Is this repeatable in all projects?


author: Manuel K?bler
body: I can reproduce it in all projects. It is not possible to work because of this, the key word being downtime


author: Jack Brickey
body: Thanks. Sure sounds like a bug. Hopefully you set your support request to P1. Please report results here. I'm sort of surprised we are not seeing more posts on this. Maybe it is limited to your instance. Time will tell.


author: Manuel K?bler
body: Since I'm using the Free Edition, I don't get any direct support from Atlassian. I record my time with speed. I have first deactivated the new view for the next 3 months with the hope that this setting will still be active after March 7th, 2022.

I divided the view into two tabs.

- ticket information  
- Log work


author: Jack Brickey
body: Ah. You had not tagged as Free. The thing is, I don't believe the new create is that new but maybe I am missing something here. How did you deactivate new view? In any event it sounds like you can create issues now?


author: Manuel K?bler
body: In the FAQ at the link <https://support.atlassian.com/jira-work-management/docs/what-is-the-new-jira-issue-create-experience/#Can-I-turn-on-or-off-the-new-Jira-issue-create-experience> how to disable it for a week or 3 months. The problem occurs as soon as I enter a work log, then the ticket is not saved and no error appears.


author: Manuel K?bler
body: Unfortunately the problem still exists. The creation of new issues, including logging the time required, now takes significantly longer

Is it possible to display a confluence page on a dashboard

[Bug] Converting issue to sub-task

comments: author: David Vins
body: Ang?lica, the question pertained to Atlassian's roadmap FOR Portfolio for JIRA... I can't speak for users of the server version, but development on Cloud (if any?) seems to move at a glacial pace, is not aligned with capabilities such as the new UX for the server version, and the current version is anything but agile. Many of us are stuck trying to make decisions as to whether we begin or continue to invest in Portfolio for JIRA or fish elsewhere.

Why can't I select/see the Assignee field? while switching to new Experience it is there?
Asked by Nick De Groof:

I am wondering why I cannot add a column for the Assignee, some posts make believe it is not possible, but recently have been using the New Experience and funny enough the Assignee is one of the main columns/fields in the roadmap, meaning the data is apparently present.

So why can it then not be selected in the Classic view or even used in the Team member creation?


Answers:
author: Thomas
body: Hi [@Nick De Groof](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2617140),

The new Portfolio for Jira planning experience introduces core changes as described [here](https://confluence.atlassian.com/jiraportfolioserver/changes-in-the-new-experience-961780550.html), one of which is to rely on the Jira assignee field rather than the Portfolio Team Member field.

The Portfolio live plan experience is heavily relying on the Portfolio algorithm, which allows multiple people working on the same task, but the Jira Assignee field does not allow multiple values, hence the use of the Team Member field instead. To avoid confusion between those 2 fields it was decided to not display the assignee field along the Team Member field but to add some synchronization capabilities via the plan configuration option.

I hope that helps clarify some of the reasons behind the decisions made with Portfolio Live plan and since you mentioned it, let us know via the feedback option on how the new experience is working out for you!

Cheers,

Thomas

comments: author: Nick De Groof
body: Hi Thomas, thanks for the response, and while I can appreciate the logic, my point was that the data-field is available, as I can switch between the live plane and the new experience, granted each type of plan is based on either team-member or assignee, since in our case we have one issue(subtask), one assignee, this would enable to also see in the live plan who does what and would not force us to assemble redundant setup of teams in order to get some capacity planning from the live plan, could have been simplified. Again understand design choices had to be made and this how it is.

BR, Nick

Is there a way to clone/copy a portfolio plan?
Asked by suzanne.potter:

We created a plan in portfolio for one project. We added two teams to this plan and assigned the appropriate team to each story/task. Since Jira does not recognize the Team field in portfolio, the only place the team assignment exists is in the portfolio plan.

In the future we will need to bring this plan into another plan along with a second project to see timelines of the two projects on one roadmap. We want to see two projects in the same plan so that we don't rollout too many different projects at the same time to the same set of users.

I don't want to have to redo the team assignments we made in our projects so I'm wondering if there is a way to clone a project plan.

Thanks!


Answers:
author: Gabriele Franck
body: Hi, Suzanne

Indeed, the Team field is only applicable in Portfolio.

You can't make a copy of a portfolio plan in 'one click'.

What you can do here is two things:

1. You can create a [Shared Team](https://confluence.atlassian.com/jiraportfoliocloud/managing-shared-teams-828785294.html) and use this same team in all of your plans
2. To 'copy' a plan, what you need to do is make sure to use the same \*Issue Source\* in both plans.

As per your description, I think just creating a Shared Team will make your work easily here :)

Give it a try and let me know the outcome!
