Definition

Currently, the JQL used after clicking on Bulk Change from issue navigator is based on the Current Search JQL. This means that there are situations where the issues listed in the page's issue navigator is not based on the Current Search JQL.

Eg:

1. Two tabs are open, TAB_A and TAB_B. Both are on an issue navigator page.
2. TAB_A shows a list of issues based on JQL_QUERY_A.
3. TAB_B shows a list of different issues based on JQL_QUERY_B.

Expected results: Clicking on bulk change from TAB_A, the changes made are affecting issues from JQL_QUERY_A.

Actual results: Clicking on bulk change from TAB_A, the changes made are affecting issues from JQL_QUERY_B.

Suggestion

Bulk change should use the JQL used from the issue navigator page instead of Current Search to reduce confusion among users.
