What are releases in your plan?
This page refers to the advanced planning features that are only available as part of Jira Cloud Premium and Enterprise.
Releases in your plan are referred to as Fix versions in Jira. Read more about versions in Jira Software.
Releases are commonly used by development teams as deadlines for sections (or versions) of work. In the rest of Jira, these are also referred to as Fix versions.
You can schedule releases to end on a date of your choosing or once all of the work items it contains have been completed. If you choose the second option, the end date of the release in your project appears blank.
View, add, and create new releases in your plan by navigating to the Releases tab in your plan.
You can plan using two types of releases: single-project releases and cross-project releases.
Single-project releases are the same as those found in projects outside of your plan. In order to use releases from team-managed projects in your plan, they need to be enabled first.
Alternatively, you can use cross-project releases to align and track several single-project releases as one release. More about single-project and cross-project releases
