Split a Ticket for Different Days

Example

JIRA ticket #1
Info

Example: JIRA ticket BTP-12 with an original time estimate of 16 hours is scheduled for a user on Monday and Tuesday. Suddenly the ticket of higher priority ((JIRA ticket

#2

TIV-62) is assigned to a user to work on Tuesday, and he/she cannot continue on Ticket

#1

BTP-12 and will be able to finish only on Wednesday.

Ticket

#1

BTP-12 will have to be split into Monday and Wednesday. This can be done by dragging and dropping the task by keeping the Shift key pressed.

As a result, the system creates two issue parts – the first one for Monday and the second one for Wednesday.

The estimate will also be split (16 hours of remaining time = 8 hours on Monday and 8 hours on Wednesday):
