Checking Unassigned Jira Tickets#

Setup#

Basic Instructions#

  • Go to the unassigned filter in Jira

    • Easy way: click on this link

    • Longer way: Dashboards > Admin Dashboard > AEA tasks by Assignee section > scroll down to “Unassigned”.

  • Click on the Key for a case to start the process.

  • The Jira issue should have two documents attached:

    • The manuscript (“PDF_Proof.pdf”)f

    • The DCAF (should never be missing…)

  • Open up the DCAF (you can do this within Jira, without downloading).

In the most recent cases, fill out the following info from the DCAF attached:

  • Fill out the openICPSR Project Number - this should be JUST the pure number part, not openicpsr-123456!

  • If a different DOI is there (does not include 10.3886), copy the full DOI into the field Replication package URL!

  • Review the part with “Is any of the data used in this manuscript….”. This will be encoded in the field DCAF_Access_Restrictions_V2 (which is on the DCAF tab in Jira)

Unassigned Ticket DCAF Fields

  • if Yes, data can be made available privately is checked:

    • Create a subtask of type Request additional data, with subject Request Restricted Access Data for (AEAREP-NUMBER)

    • Restricted Access Data subtask

    • Tag the Assistant Data Editor in the newly created subtask comment.

    • The Assistant Data Editor will do additional steps

Now you need to open the draft replication deposit (typically, but not always on openICPSR)

  • Click on the Replication Package URL, which will open up a separate tab.

  • Find the README in the deposit.

  • Click on the README (you can preview, probably do not need to download) and scan through to identify the software used

  • Go to the tab Repl info and add the software identified to the Software Used field.

Check if the case is a revision:#

Check if the case is a Revision by going to the Other Links tab and clicking the JiraSearchMC. If there are other Jira issues (not subtasks or FYIs), then it is a Revision.

Checking For Revision

  • Link the Revision: Go back to the main Task you were editing, click “Link issue” > “Is a Revision of” and then input the AEAREP number of the older task.

Linking Revision to Main Issue

  • Update the MCStatus field to include ‘Revision’ if it doesn’t already have it.

  • Update the bitbucket short name with the repository name of the previous cases.

  • Check if the older Jira ticket had restricted access data (i.e. Working location of restricted data was filled out). If yes:

    • Link Issue, select type “relates to” and add the aearep-xxx for the subtask “Request Restricted Access Data for AEAREP-nnn”

    • Fill out Working location of restricted data with the same L drive path

    • Fill out Agreement Signed to match the older Jira ticket

Non-standard unassigned cases#

When you get a Jira ticket titled "Contact form submission (researcher@university.edu, FirstName LastName)", often these are in reference to openICPSR deposit that have already been published. The message is from someone reviewing the deposit and found something concerning, like a missing code file or potential PII.

  • Review the message in the Primary Info Section.

  • Using the DOI or article titled provided, search for the Manuscript Identifier.

    • You can find the article titled on the manuscript attached.

    • You can find the DOI under the “Other Links” tab.

Article DOI

  • Fill out the Journal field and the Manuscript Central Identifer field.

  • Mark the MCStatus as Update and fill out the Update Type (under Other Links) as the appropriate label, depending on who is contacting us.

  • Tag the Assistant Data Editor in the ticket comments.

  • The Assistant Data Editor will contact the authors.
