Ticket Merger:
Inspiration
In a lot of project, we’ve noticed so many issues, that are similar or even the same.
Mostly to find all information we needed, we had to go and find all of this issues that wasn’t linked and then link them to one issue. Even if all issues was linked, we didn't have all information in one place, we had to move around those issues and collect all information. Then we thought, what if we could merge them into one task!
What it does
Ticket Merger has one priority function, merging issues. From selected by user issues user can choose, if application will create new issue or edit existing one. Then in edit view, user have to provide all data, that he want to be populated on target issue. Application will show all values from selected issues so user do not need to type it, just simply click and choose what information are crucial.
Additionally Ticket Merger offer two actions after merge:
linking duplicated issues to parent.
removing duplicated issues from Jira (only if user has permissions!). So user can decide what to do with duplication to keep their Jira clean and neat.
