You can add a task to multiple users at the same time and also set the start and end date of the period this task will be worked on.
First, you need to add users to the plan. If you don’t know how to do this please follow the guide here: Add users
After a user has been added to the plan you can hover over a table cell for the desired date. A highlight will show up and it will be possible to click it.
After you click it a modal will show up.
Here you can select users from the ones you added to the plan. By default, the user whose cell you clicked will be selected.
By default, there is no issue selected, however, you can immediately start typing the issue key or some text, e.g. a summary.
The last fields are the start and end dates. By default, both are set to the day of the cell you clicked.
After you selected desired values click the Add Issue button at the bottom and your issue will show up in the plan.
You can also drag issues from the list that is displayed on the left side of your plan, and drop them in the desired position on the timeline.
The list displays issues that are unscheduled, and belong to the main project of the plan. By default, there are 20 issues displayed on the list, but you can scroll down to load more.
To filter issues displayed on the list, click on the icon in the top right corner of the list to open a filtering panel. Your issues can be filtered by Project, Sprint, Issue type, Assignee, and Status, or searched with a text input.
After you finish working with the plan, make sure to save the changes. If there are any unsaved changes, you will see a notification ‘unsaved changes’ at the top of the page, next to the Plan’s name.
If you see the label just click Save Plan and all changes will be saved. You will also be notified that the changes are not saved in a pop-up when you try to exit the page.
