Edit a Scheduled Task

There are two ways of rescheduling the ticket:

• resize the ticket to followed date:

• change the Start and End Dates in Schedule page:

2.  In the opened dialog enter the desired Start and End Dates, specify a Due Date if applicable and click Change

→ The system will change the dates and the task will be re-scheduled on a user's timeline.

  2. Click on the Schedule link 

  3. In the opened popup clear out the values for Start and End Dates

     -→ The system will remove Jira ticket from a person's timeline.

• Through Unschedule box

  1. Find Jira ticket you wish to unschedule

  2. Drag-n-drop a ticket to Unschedule box in the bottom left
