Summary

One of the major benefits of the JCPP is the ability to customize clone operationsactions to suit your development process. This capability has been provided since the initial version of the plugin. Since version 3.x, we have made it possible to provide very sophisticated customization capabilities without programming. It still requires a clear understanding of your JIRA system and processes, but, the implementation can be done via a property-based configuration with average JIRA administration knowledge and some careful testing. Open an issue if you need more extensive customization than what is currently provided.An admin can customize these actions in the Configuration page. Before diving deep into configuring these customizations, take a look at the next section that lists all the features the app offers.
