Improved Jira tickets with clearer titles, due dates, and descriptions

What’s new?

We’ve upgraded the Jira integration in Scrut to improve ticket clarity, accountability, and context. Tickets created from Scrut now include structured titles, due dates, and detailed descriptions, directly addressing long-standing user feedback.

Why it matters

This enhancement helps Scrut-originated tickets stand out in Jira, enables better deadline management, and ensures stakeholders have the context they need to act efficiently.

How it works

• Clean ticket titles: Follows the new format [Scrut – <Module>] <Task Title>

• Clean ticket titles: All new Jira tickets now follow this naming pattern [Scrut – <Module>] <Task Title>

  • Example: [Scrut – Policy] Upload Access Control Policy

• Due date syncing: While creating a task in Scrut, you can now select a due date (1, 3, 7, 15, or 30 days)

  • The selected due date syncs with Jira’s native duedate field

• Context-rich descriptions:

  • Jira ticket descriptions now include:

    • Task origin and requirements

    • Involved users

    • Remediation guidance

  • A new Auto Fill button generates a pre-formatted, Markdown-supported description

  • If the description field already has content, a confirmation prompt prevents accidental overwrites

  • Users can edit the auto-filled content before submission

This rollout currently supports select task types, with full coverage coming soon.
