Since: v6.2.3. Jira: Server, Data Center

Since: v2.11.2. Jira: Cloud


Since version v6.2.3 (Jira Server and Datacenter) and version v2.11.2 (Jira Cloud) you have the ability to set trigger property to skip next planned execution when Scheduled Issue is created manually.

This feature will allow you to save the trouble of removing created tasks, when you need them before its time comes and create them manually. Eg. You have task running every 2 month, but this time you have time/data 1 week earlier and you can work on it now. With this feature you can create task now, and it will skip creation of 1 next task (for that trigger).
