Since: 2.7.2, Jira hosting: Cloud
We are glad to annouce that finally bulk scheduled issues operations have been released. We realized managing Managing dozens or hundreds of scheduled issues can be irritating and tedious, so we released some bulk operations to make The Scheduler easier to use.
...
. There are multiple actions that could be performed in a bulk way, to save you some time.
Jira hosting: Server, Data Center, Cloud (since 2.7.2).
Bulk change state
As first operation we released was the changing Changing scheduled issue state . This action is useful when you would like to disable or enable some scheduled issues.
Let's imagine you would like to suspend recurring tasks for some time - you do not have to do it manually again!

Select interesting

scheduled issues
Click 'Enable / Disable'button above the table
Choose
...
desired state of selected SI
Confirm action and that's it - your tasks have been updated!
...
Notice that the expired scheduled issues can not be activated or deactivated, so they will be omitted while changing states. If you would like to activate expired SI, you have to do it manually via wizard to set up new trigger.
...
The bulk removing nicely integrates with table filtering - it's easier to remove all of unnecessary scheduled issues. All what you have to do is:
Type phrase in filter input - just remember you can filter tasks also by state, so for instance it's easy to filter only the expired scheduled issues.
Select

tasks
Click ‘Remove'
...
button (’Delete' button in Server/DC) and confirm an action
And that's it, your tasks have been removed!
...
Notice that tasks are being removed permamently and you can not revert deleted SI.
...
The scheduler is not only great tool to schedule recurring tasks, but also works awesome as template tool. If you would like to create some tasks manually, set up manual trigger while creating SI and execute this only when you need it.
