Exporting Issues

Introduction

QMetry allows its users to export issues out of QMetry in an Excel file. User can save the Excel file on to the hard drive of computer. Users with User Role that has “Export” rights assigned for the Issue module can export issues. Role based user access control for the module is managed under User Management > Roles. If the role assigned to the user does not have rights to export issues, the  Export option will appear in disabled mode for that user.

Note: On integration of Jira with QMetry, the Issues module of QMetry will not be available.
