Creating a quick filter for unassigned work items in Jira involves using Jira's native functionality, complemented by the "Status & Progress Report" gadget from the "Simple Custom Reports, Charts & Time in Status for Jira" app. Here's a brief guide:
-
Jira's Quick Filter:
-
In Jira, navigate to your board and go to board settings.
-
Create a new quick filter with the JQL query:
assignee is EMPTY. -
This filter will allow you to view all unassigned work items quickly.
-
-
Using "Status & Progress Report" Gadget:
-
Install the "Simple Custom Reports, Charts & Time in Status for Jira" app from the Atlassian Marketplace.
-
Add the "Status & Progress Report" gadget to your dashboard.
-
Configure it to group work items by assignees, which will show both assigned and unassigned work items.
-
This approach provides a comprehensive view of work item assignments, enhancing work item tracking and management in your Jira spaces.
