Custom Field Report

An analysis report of the custom fields in Jira

Description of analysis

The Report generates 4 different "Report Types" - some fields are common, other are not. Some fields may be used to get an overview of that field or project.

Please double check the result before acting on data.

Custom fields are either "Global" - or are restricted to a list of projects.

Projects using Permission schemes : "Permission Scheme - Standard - Closed Down" || "Archived Projects - Permission Scheme" - Are considered as Archived.

Report sequence

1. Loop Through all Custom fields
   1. If Global Custom Field, ADD LINE IN EXCEL "Report Type" = "Custom Field Global"
      1. Search for Issues with that Field not EMPTY
         1. Loop through all those Projects
            1. ADD LINE IN EXCEL "Report Type" = "Custom Field Use"
   2. if Not Global Custom Field, ADD LINE IN EXCEL "Report Type" = "Custom Field Project"
      1. Loop Through all Projects ADD LINE IN EXCEL "Report Type" = "Project" Search if that Project has any Dedicated Custom Fields declared (Currently Maximum 5 projects added! - Performance optimization) ADD LINE IN EXCEL "Report Type" = "Project Use" Analysis / Things to investigate
