Action performed in Tempo

What will happen with the data in BigPicture during the synchronization?

Adding a Resource

  • If in BigPicture the Resource already exists for the same user in Jira, the Resource will become synchronized, and its status will become synchronized with its counterpart in Tempo, meaning the Resource will be assigned to the Workload and Holiday Plan which was predefined and assigned to in Tempo plugin.

  • If in BigPicture the Resource does not exist for the same Jira user, then with data pulled from Tempo, a new external synchronized Resource will be created.

Resource Modification 

  • If the corresponding Resource is synchronized, then changes will be synchronized.

  • If the corresponding Resource is overwritten, then changes will be ignored.

Deleting Resource

  • The corresponding Resource changes its status to 'native’ (regardless if it was synchronized or overwritten)
