Mapping
Status Mapping
Every status in Jira can be mapped to a designated external status in the Solution Manager.
The external status specified has to be the technical status definition of the Solution Manager.
If requirements in SolMan should be created by creating a Jira ticket or by changing its status, make sure that external status E0001 is mapped accordingly.
