Dashboard showing issues pending approval and Approvals Details
- Antonella Capalbo
Is there any way to display on a dashboard the issues still hanging on the approval step and which approvals are waiting for a reply?
Preliminary Concepts
Herzum Approval Status custom field
The built-in custom field Herzum Approval Status allows to display the status of each pending approval.
You are able to create such type of custom field same way you do for each other JIRA Custom field (
-> Issues -> Fields -> Custom Fields -> Add Custom Field),
Ensure to set up the custom field searcher in order to enable the capability to perform searches on the custom field in the Jira Search Navigator.
It is recommended not to add the field to the Issue View Screen because it will result in an overlap of the information already displayed via the Approvals panel of the issue screen.
Notice that the custom field doesn't display historical data; it displays the status of the approvals for the issues that are still hanging in the approval step.
How it works
You are able to
- create and save a filter returning all issues still hanging on the approval step
- add the Herzum Approval Status custom field to the Filter Results Gadget on the Dashboard:
The Gadget displays the issues still hanging on the approval step and which approvals are waiting for a reply
