Task Browser

The Task Browser is a tool that allows you to browse through all of the tasks that are currently in your Microsoft Project plan.

 

Using this utility, you can Control+Click multiple tasks and highlight them. The various processes of this screen will perform actions on the selected tasks.

Filters

There are several checkboxes at the top of the screen that can be used to filter the list. These represent three types of issues:

1) Issues that have an ID and are currently linked with an issue in JIRA
2) Issues that have no ID and need to be created in JIRA
3) Issues that are marked as JIRA Ignored meaning they will be exchanged with JIRA.

There are several options under the Bulk Update panel that allow you to perform actions on the selected JIRA issues.

Change Type - This will allow you to bulk change the issue type of the selected issues
Change Priority - This will allow you to bulk change the priority of the selected issues
Change Assignee - This will allow you to bulk change the assignee of the selected issues.

You can Right-Click on the issue list and get a context menu with the various options that are available on the side panel.
