What is the primary purpose of a Jira workflow?

To define the sequence of statuses an issue passes through and the transitions between them

To determine which users can create issues in a project

To store all comments and attachments related to an issue

To generate reports about project progress

A support team's workflow has a transition named 'Start Progress' that moves an issue from 'Open' to 'In Progress'. The team wants to record the date when work actually begins. What should an administrator configure on that transition to capture this information automatically?

Add a validator that requires the user to enter the date in a screen field.

Add a property to the status that stores the date.

Add a post function that updates a date field with the current date.

Add a condition that checks if the date field is empty.

In a Jira workflow, what is a status?

A priority level assigned to an issue

A user who is assigned to work on an issue

A stage in an issue's lifecycle, such as 'In Progress'

A development team uses a workflow where issues move from 'In Progress' to 'Done'. When an issue is closed, the team wants to distinguish between work that was completed successfully and work that was cancelled. What should an administrator configure to capture this distinction?

Create two separate 'Done' statuses, one for completed and one for cancelled.

Add a resolution field to the 'Done' status and make it required on the transition.

Create a new transition from 'In Progress' directly to 'Cancelled'.

Add a custom field to the issue and require it on the 'Done' transition.
