Exporting to Microsoft Project

You can export projects, versions and issues displayed in WBS Gantt-Chart as XML files that are readable in Microsoft Project by clicking Tools ⇒ MS Project export on the operations bar.

This feature supports exporting hierarchies and dependencies (including lags), as well as several fields.

The correspondence table between the Jira and Microsoft Project fields is provided below.

Summary

Task name


Assignee 

Resource name

  • Makes the assignee's username and units as the output.

  • If the units is 0, Microsoft Project specifies the duration of the task as 0 days as a default. Therefore tasks with no milestones and 0% units are exported with a 1% units.

  • If square brackets are used for the full name of the assignee, convert to parentheses. In Microsoft Project, you cannot use square brackets for resource names.
