With version 1.1.0 we've added many fixes and improvements. Some of them requires modifying already existed Project components (like workflow), so due to security and JIRA integrity reasons we left some of the update steps to the JIRA Administrator.

Warning: These steps are only necessary when updating from any previous Vacation Manger version. If you are installing Vacation Manager for the first time you already have all these changes and you are ready to go!

Update add-on to version 1.1.0 from Manage add-ons tab.
