Setting up questions

Intelligent Reports allows you to ask questions from the user who is generating a report using your template. For example, if you create a general project progress report, you may want to ask the user which project they would like a report on.

You do not have to include questions in your report template, however if you include questions, users of your report template will see something similar to this.

The above report asks the user of the report template three questions; the project to run the report on, the start date for the report and the end date for the report. The data used to create this report will be determined by the answers of the user.

You can follow these steps to include questions in your report.

1. Add your questions to your report template.

2. Set up rules to select the JIRA data to use in your report based on the answers to your questions.
