It is impossible to search for issues which don't have due dates assigned. If no value is given "Due Before" and "Due after" then any issue is returned independent if has a due date assigned or not.

Hi Chris,

By your comment I am guessing you are hinting at a negative search.

I have linked this issue to another already present that relates to your request.

Please vote for this linked issue and/or comment on this.

Cheers,
Justin

This issue is critical for us aswell.

Using our current sprint workflow, issues that are moved into the sprint come from a pool of issues with no due dates. With our current issue database contains hundreds of issues some scheduled, some not, we have a strong need for filtering on "no due date".

Ideally the due date picker would have an added option:

===========================================================
Filter Issues
Use this form to filter issues based on due date period.

NO DUE DATE SET
Now overdue
More than XXX days overdue.
Due in next XXX days overdue.
In range from XXX to XXXX
===========================================================

Although negative searching would be nice, I think this is a distinct use case that can be handled without implementing something that involved. I like David Wiblin's suggestion in this area, that sounds reasonable to me.

Like others who comment on this, the inability to display items without a due date is limiting, as it makes it difficult to depict work that is unscheduled.
