The due date history panel will automatically appear in each of your Atlassian Jira projects after installation. The due date history automatically integrates itself into the right-hand column of the activity view of your jira issues.
The due date history displays all shifts in the due date of an issue. The processor is displayed with full JIRA name, e-mail address and exact time of change. If the due date of an activity is changed, the shift in time to the original due date is displayed in days. In addition, a comment can be added to each movement. The "Due date history" panel displays the changes in tabular form. The following columns are filled with information:
From - Specifies the date of the original due date.
To - Specifies the date of the new due date.
On - Indicates the date / time of the change at which the due date was changed.
By - Indicates the person by whom a change was made on the due date.
Delta - Specifies the shift by x days (s) to the original date.
"Add comment" allows you to add comments that explain the change on the due date. The created comments appear in the Jira comment view.
If a comment / reason has already been added, the function to display the comment appears.
Changes to the due date are listed automatically. The most recent shift in the due date is listed as the first entry in the table. The system always calculates the shift to the original date. This appears as a total shift above the table. Shifts that occur before the original due date are shown with - x day (s).
