By configuring workflows in JIRA, project administrators can define the transitions between different statuses of an issue. They can control which users or groups have permission to execute these transitions, thereby managing who can move issues through the workflow stages.

JQL (JIRA Query Language) is specifically designed for querying and filtering issues within JIRA, aiding reporting.

Post-functions automate actions that occur after an issue transitions, streamlining processes and ensuring consistency. They can be predefined or custom-built based on specific workflow requirements.

The system dashboard provides an overview of JIRA's performance and key metrics, helping administrators monitor and manage the system effectively.

The backlog in a Scrum board serves as a prioritized list of features, user stories, or tasks that need to be completed during the project. It represents the product backlog and is constantly refined and updated based on feedback and changing requirements.

In JIRA, an issue can only be assigned to one assignee at a time. Assigning to multiple assignees is not a built-in feature. Each issue can have only one assignee responsible for it. This helps maintain accountability and clarity regarding who is responsible for resolving the issue.

In JIRA, the "Story" issue type is typically used to represent user requirements or user stories. User stories describe specific functionality or features from an end user's perspective and are commonly used in agile development methodologies.

Database tuning in JIRA system maintenance involves optimizing database queries to improve performance by reducing execution time and resource consumption.

In JIRA, selecting "Save" finalizes the changes made to the issue and publishes it immediately, making it visible to other users. On the other hand, choosing "Save As Draft" saves the changes without publishing the issue, allowing users to continue working on it privately. This distinction is crucial when users need to make incremental changes to an issue without affecting its public visibility. It enables users to draft and review changes before making them visible to others.

JIRA Automation Rules can help reduce manual effort in your project by automating repetitive tasks and streamlining workflows. This can lead to increased productivity and reduced chances of human error.
