Features of Automated Attachments

Template-based Automation

Users can create document templates that include special tags to pull data from fields in Jira (such as comments, standard fields, and custom fields). These templates can be used to automatically generate reports or attachments.

Integration with Workflows

The plugin can be integrated with Jira workflows, meaning that documents can be automatically generated at specific stages of a project, such as after a task is completed or when moving to a new phase. This eliminates the need for manual document creation and file submission.

Time Savings

With the ability to automatically generate large quantities of similar files, Automated Attachments significantly speeds up the reporting process. Instead of manually creating each document, the tool generates reports and attachments based on predefined templates.

Applications Examples

IT Project Management

In IT projects, such as software development, automated documentation and report generation can significantly streamline team workflows. Automated Attachments can be used to automatically create progress reports, test results, error logs, and documentation for code changes. Generating these reports at each stage of the project (e.g., after the completion of a sprint) allows teams to continuously track progress and communicate results with stakeholders.

Scrum and Agile Teams

Agile teams can use Automated Attachments to generate Scrum cards or sprint summary reports. The report templates can automatically include data about tasks, assignments, and their statuses, saving time that would otherwise be spent on manual report and documentation creation.

Ticket Management in Technical Support Teams

For support teams handling customer tickets, Automated Attachments can automatically generate documents based on ticket data. This can be particularly useful for creating SLA reports, summaries of customer interactions, or detailed analyses of resolved issues. These documents can be automatically attached to tickets in Jira, facilitating further analysis and archiving.

Simplifying Complex Processes

Large organizations often rely on complex and extensive workflows that are difficult to maintain. Workflow PowerBox simplifies the management of such processes through a modular approach, reducing errors and streamlining management.

Contract and Invoice Management

In organizations that manage a large number of contracts, invoices, or orders, Automated Attachments can generate reports on contract progress, detailed financial summaries, or payment overviews. These documents can be attached to the relevant tasks or projects in Jira, facilitating later monitoring.
