Overview
Component versions is a way to organize release management on a component level thus reducing the number of Jira projects.
...
It works with built-in Jira version fields 'Fix version/s' and 'Affect version/s' as well as custom version fields.
Manage component versions
Component versions are displayed and managed in the new 'Component versions' project page.
...
New components can be created on this page without switching to the Components project page.
...
Create new version
New component version can be created by clicking the Create button on the 'Component versions' panel.
...
Version names must be unique across the whole project. Different components cannot have versions with the same name.
...
Filter versions
It is possible to filter versions by status and name using the filtering toolbar.
By default, only unreleased versions are displayed, while released and archived versions are filtered out.
...
Version operations
The following operations are available for versions using context menu:
Edit - edit version name, start date, release date, and description
Delete - delete version from project and from component
Remove from component - remove version from component only, version will remain in the project
Release - release version which is currently unreleased
Unrelease - unrelease version which is currently released
Archive - archive version which is currently not archived
Unarchive - unarchive version which is currently archived
...
Add existing version
It is possible to add an existing project version to a component provided that it is not linked to any component already.
...
The selected version will be added to a currently active component whose name is also displayed on the screen for reference.
...
Use component versions
Once component versions are defined for the project users can explicitly select versions grouped by associated components.
...
Customer portal users can select versions using version picker too.
