      Atlassian Update – 10 December 2021

      Hi everyone,

      Thank you for your interest in this issue.

      As a part of Jira Service Management Data Center 4.21 we have released column configuration on the Help center’s request list view. This allows Jira admins to select the columns that they would like to appear in their customer's requests list. It also allows customers to configure and order the columns.

      The available fields are type, reference, summary, status, service project, requester, created date, updated date, due date, assignee and priority.

      Please refer to our documentation to learn how to configure the requests list.

      Kind regards,

      Charlie Marriott
      Jira Service Management, Data Center & Server

      Problem Definition

      It currently is not possible to add or remove columns and filters on the "My Requests" page of the customer portal.

      Suggestion

      • Ability to configure the columns a customer sees in the help center when viewing their list of request/s. Example would be to remove the "service project" column, but add a "date entered" column.
      • It would be nice if the My Request page could get customized, providing the ability to add or remove particular columns and filters. This would allow for customers to filter their requests more efficiently.

            We're gathering feedback and investigating directions to improve the app, as it is yet the first version. A version for Cloud is definitely one of the options. Watch the app on the Marketplace, or follow us on LinkedIn or Twitter to get all the news first!

            That's great, but it's only for server JIRA. Do you plan to have it also for Cloud jira?

            As an Atlassian Platinum Enterprise Partner and a Gold Top Vendor leading the ITSM segment of the Ecosystem, we've also dealt with this limitation of Jira Service Desk Server and added My Requests Extension to our JSD app suite. It gives you, as an admin, the possibility to configure which fields can be displayed on My Requests page, which of them are visible as columns by default, and also define which user group can use a specific field. Then your customers can add, change and reorder the columns on My Requests page and filter issues by specific Service Desks, Organizations, Request types and Statuses.

            However, for now the app is available for Server only.

            For more details, please refer to the app's documentation or drop a line at support@deviniti.com.

            Boyan, any update progress or idea about when your app will be available for the Cloud? Thanks a lot.

            Hi,  are there any updates on when/if this will be availabe?  Our clients are getting very frustrated with the limitations of the native filters in their Service Desk portals.  This is an absolute must have.

             

            Thank you

            Well, I would think the revenue from the Cloud version would be a great incentive to make this work.  People are begging for this functionality, it would be a wonderful thing!

            We will, but don't hold your breath, there are some specifics in the cloud with the Portal that will be tricky, so it will take some time.

            Yes, so far we have only released the Server version, but we are working on Cloud version as well. No estimated release yet, but we will do our best to serve the Cloud users as well.

            Boyan, that's great! However lots of users, including me, use Jira CLOUD. I can see that the add-on is only available for server jira...........

            As we believe this feature is a must for Jira Service Desk, we created an add-on to do it: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1219230/advanced-portal-reports-for-service-desk

            It allows the Jira Service Desk project admin to decide which fields to be available for the Portal Customer to see, and the Customer can decide which of the allowed fields to show. There is an option to allow Customers to see all requests in the portal or only the ones that they should have access to. Export to CSV is available. Sorting by column and filtering are also there. 

            More features to be added soon. 

            Feedback is highly appreciated!

            This is definitely something you should implement for the reasons stated above. Particularly: The My Requests page works fine when you have 10-20 requests in your list, but when you have hundreds of requests it is almost impossible to find the requests you want to find. Please prioritize this as the seems like an important improvement for so many users.

            yes. need to more search filters in Customer Portal. Just like filtering using status, data, etc. because clients are confusing, there were not just like filters. Please develop this. that will be great help to all users.

            1. Customer needs to be able to search for any text in the request - not just the summary. 
            2. Customer needs to be able to select more columns to be viewable. Preferably select among all the fields he has entered in the requests. 
            3. Customer needs to be able to order the requests by clicking on the column headers.

            I have the same problem.

            I will give you a use case to why it is really important to have this feature put into the product. 

            Our Sales Engineer and Field Engineers are using the portal to submit support requests and other items through the portal. Half of our Field Engineers are use using Jira and are use to having the ability to search inside Jira, make dashboards, and filters. They can't do that with the portal. They have been complaining for months about this and how hard it is for them to do their jobs. 

            So the solution I came up with was to make a Role for our JSD project called Browse Only. That way they could browse the project, search for issues, create dashboard, and create filters. I also made it so they they could delete and edit their comments. I wasn't happy giving them browse access to project because I didn't necessarily wanted them to see our internal comments. There are other issue with the portal that they have complained about like not being able to edit their comments and the description and subject. I know these are issue that have already been submitted for that.  The reason I mentioned these is my vision for our company is for everyone to use the portal to search our knowledge base and submit requests without having to use this hybrid solution I came up.

            Despite heavy investment to date in time and effort configuring a new JIRA Service Desk instance, the quality of the Customer Portal is still a cause for hesitance from the business and the entire solution is still not implemented into production. There is even talk of looking at alternatives.

            Totally agree with this. Its really besides me that a immensely complex and variable littered program has such a painstakingly awful to use portal for clients. Even the colors of the statusses in the overview of the tickets that clients see are wrong (3 colours guys, c'mon).

            Filter options for clients, Variables on the portal, Columns adjustments. Due dates, a calendar and simple overview?

            We are all selling, and everyone is a customer. Why are we giving the actual (service-desk) customer a less rich experience than the internal customer? In fact the service desk customer cannot customize their own filter view (experience), so they are beholden to this narrow scope of the service desk portal design. This product continues to get better, thank you for continuing to push.

            This is an immense issue and significant oversight.  When a client has more than a page or two of open issues for an organization, the customer portal is utterly useless for managing their open concerns.

            It would be great to have this. But maybe a lighter version of this is to at least let the clients to see more columns like due date or priority. Currently I can only show few columns to clients which are not very informative.

            Yes we would really like to be able to do this too.
            I would like to be able to add any kind of column to the Customer Portal request overview.
            f.e.
            I have one customer to who we provide an extra field where he can enter the name of the project the ticket is regarding to. Our agents are able to filter tickets based on a project. 
            But our customer can't do that unfortuanally in the customer portal request overview...

            When a solution will be developed for this it would also be nice to think about the problem/request of this ticket (while working on it):
            https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSD-4326 (order tickets by clicking on the top of the column)

            This is very important. I want to have an option to customize what columns are visible for the customer. Most important ones are priority, date entered, last update and similar.

            We also need option to have more filters at customer portal. Like filtering on stages wher issue is currently in. Like Backlog, Pending, In progress, etc.
