Project Description

PoC to Integrate JIRA issues with EPM (Microsoft Project Management)


Main use cases:


1) When creating a new task in EPM (MS Project Server) and assigned to a given resource a JIRA issue is created and assigned to the mapped (See VLR) user. JIRA Estimation is showing the work estimation specified in EPM.
2) Synchronize Worklog time entered in JIRA for those 'managed' issues in the corresponding task in EPM.
3) Publish any events that other systems may be interested to be informed about (e.g time collection for time tracking tools)


Technology:


- SAG Webmethods IS 8.x
- SAG Webmethods Broker
- Microsoft EPM 2007 and API (PWA/PSI)
- Atlassian JIRA 4.x and JIRA API
- C# .NET for EPM event handing
- Java for JIRA event handling and API calls.
