Introduction

The Support Tracker Mapping allows user to configure each Support Tracker Project.

Settings for each Support Tracking Project includes:

• Reference Number Field – the number field containing the credit utilisation value in other Non Support Tracker project
• Reference Date Field – the date field to refer in other Non Support Tracker project that falls within the maintenance period (ST: Contract Start Date to ST: Contract End Date) in each Support Tracker Issue
• Warning Level – the percentage value to be deemed as warning level; the percentage is with respect to the ST: Total Credits in each Support Tracker Issue
• Notification Level – the notification setting for each Support Tracker Project to determine whether the Support Tracker Notification should be triggered
• JQL Query – any additional JQL condition to further refine the tracking condition for each Support Tracker Issue within the Support Tracker Project

   3. If JQL Query condition is set, the JQL condition will be added to the default condition for each ticket in the mapped Support Tracker project.

      1. e.g. given the following JQL Query:

       

      1. Code Block
         statusCategory != Done OR resolution is EMPTY

         
         

      2. the full condition governing the report now becomes

         Code Block
         project in (multi-project list) AND reference number is not EMPTY AND reference date >= start date AND reference date <= end date AND (statusCategory != Done

      AND

      1. OR resolution is EMPTY)
