Hi -

I am interested to use Jira to do some project management work, specifically assigning task and tracking them.

However, when opening a new issue (task), I don't seems to be able to find input fields such as 'scheduled start date', 'scheduled end date'. Although there is a time tracking feature, it is not exactly what i am looking for.

Is there a feature that will allow me to have the ability to input scheduled start and end date?

Any chance this might be implemented soon?

Just to add - I have about looked at various issue management and task tracking tool. My primary aim is task mgmt with time tracking, since I can still live with bugzilla for issue/bug mgmt. If I can get both in one package like Jira, so much the better. The next closest I've seen for task mgmt is granpm (www.granpm.com), but it doesn't have as sexy a UI as jira. I don't need a lot for task mgmt, just task assignment, time tracking. No hierarchical task mgmt required.

I'll vote for this after posting my comment.

One of the 'nice to haves' that my PM's have asked for is: "Show me a report of all issues that are late"

I haven't thought it through, but I've suggested that we could kludge this by making versions in 2 week increments. When logging a new issue, you'd select the appropriate 'version' that is should be fixed for (or in our paradigm, 'fix it by this date').

But it would be great to have this for real. So instead of the time estimate of 2d or 12h, you'd have a "completion date estimate" and a query could show my PM's what issues are !Closed or !Resolved after this date.

(or is there an easier way to kludge this 'for now')?

Thanks.

We'd like to use JIRA. But one of the urgent problems ist that we have no date fields (pred. start date, pred. end date) and no tracking for that.
We need that for development (to see which issues are in the timeframe and which are not) and for bugfixing. For bugfixes we promise our customers to fix the bugs within a defined time frame. We have to know if a bug is overdue. There should also be a possibility to send e-mails automatically to the reporter, assignee (maybe watchers) if this is the case. If jira does not support this feature we can not buy it.

With the combination of Due dates, customfields and field management in the JIRA 2.5. you should be able to add fields to Issue that would allow you to keep track and search (Find Issues) for the information required.

It is also possible to send emails of overdue issue by using filter subscription. Simple save a search that looks for all issues due before today then subscribe the relevant group to it.
