Using this area

How a Jira transfer is accepted

Confirm which system to use

Confirm which system to use for each activity, Jira or Akollo.

Review coverage

Before accepting a transfer, review coverage of the agreed records.

Check the special cases

Custom fields, extensions, permissions and history need explicit coverage checks.

Resolve exceptions

Investigate unresolved exceptions and resolve them before you accept the part of the transfer they belong to.

Accept the transfer

Accept the transfer, then follow the agreed changeover arrangements.

Warning

Do not accept a transfer while exceptions are unresolved. Custom fields, extensions, permissions and history are not covered unless you check them explicitly.

Example

A project transfer includes tasks and attachments, but one custom field needs review. The project owner resolves the exception before accepting that part of the transfer.
