Advanced Feature: Plan a Task for Multiple Resources

Overcoming Jira Limitations: Unlike Jira, which restricts tasks to a single assignee, TimePlanner allows you to schedule one issue for multiple resources. This functionality is available when using app data for date fields, bypassing Jira's single-assignee limitation.

Here are 3 efficient ways to assign a Jira issue to several users within TimePlanner:

1. Direct Scheduling from Jira Issue Details

  • Navigate to the Jira issue detail page you want to schedule → Open a Jira issue.

  • Click on "Open TeamBoard TimePlanner" to access the scheduling features.

  • Select "Add Plan" and fill in the necessary fields like Start Date, End Date, and Hours/day for the first assignee.

  • To add another team member to the same task, simply click "Add Plan" again and repeat the process, adjusting the dates and effort as needed for each additional assignee.

2. Using the Planning Detail

  • Click on an existing task to open “Planning Detail

  • Clicking on the “+New plan” button to create more task plans for other members
