Use case

When keeping track of issues to be done, it is helpful to add a reminder to them. Here we are going to use a custom date-time field called "Reminder". Every morning at 01:00 am, the following rule checks for issues that have reached the re-submission date and will re-transition them to

Scheduled trigger

Add a Trigger → Scheduled and choose who you want to execute this rule in Run as*

Schedule

Choose Daily

Interval

Set to Once per day at 1:00 am

JQL selector

Add Selector → JQL Selector

JQL Query

Use the following Expression:

nnnnn = startOfDay()

nnnnn has to be the name of the custom date field, like "Reminder" or "duedate".

Transition issue action

Next to JQL Selector click on Add → Action → Transition Issue

Mode

Choose Transition to status

Status

Choose Open
