By having a Jira dates source configured for particular Jira field(s), you’ll be able to create Jira dates events. Thus, as in our example, by creating Jira dates events, you’ll be able to edit the filed due date for given Jira issues. Each created Jira dates event edits the Jira field(s) configured for the source. This data is stored in Jira database. The changes made to Jira fields, in Jira, are transparently displayed in Company Calendar Planner.
The reports can be configured and generated to show the Jira dates events for a given period, grouped by defined fields.

In addition, you can configure the Jira issue fields to be displayed for the custom events. Let’s say, you want to see the assignee, priority, due date and fix version for the issue you are planning to discuss.
The created planning events could be reflected on reports.
