User Permissions

Scheduler for JIRA allows the JIRA Administrator to control and restrict access to specific parts of the plugin according to user groups.

Permissions in Scheduler for JIRA are global permissions and therefore apply to all projects used with the plugin.

As within JIRA global permissions are granted to groups of users.
