How to convert JIRA story into sub-task or defect?

Many times we entangled in the situation where we have made a story in JIRA but later on realised that it should have to be defect or in other case, sub-task of another story.


Story → Sub-task

So the workaround for converting the story into defect is given below:

  1. Open your story
  2. Click on more option
  3. Click on the Convert to sub-task option in the dropdown
  4. You would be asked to choose Parent story, so chose relevant story
  5. After submit, your story gets converted into sub-task

Story → Defect

Now if you want the story to be converted into defect, then you should first convert it into sub-task. Thereafter, you can convert that sub-task into defect as given below:

  1. Open the sub-task
  2. Click on more option
  3. Click on the Convert to issue option in the dropdown
  4. You would be asked to fill up relevant fields required for raising a defect, fill them up as required
  5. After submit, your sub-task gets converted into defect.

Unlock protected blocks in Siemens SIMATIC Step 7

Recently I'd been called by Hindalco's Fabrication Plant division to unlock the protected blocks in Siemens SIMATIC Step 7. They were in need to unlock those blocks since an year because of 1 million Rupees of loss per month. They want to re-program those blocks but it was locked by the man who'd done the setup. From the people working in that department, I came to know that they were trying to call that man (someone from Italy) right here but he's not coming. Actually, what he'd done was that he'd locked some of the blocks and deleted the source file. And Siemens didn't provide any feature to unlock. Department people also told me that even the people working in Siemens don't know how to do it. Being a software engineer I know that any thing can be reverse engineered. So I took up the challenge. How did I unlocked the blocks? The first thing I'd done was searched about this software at Google and read about what is this software all about. Aft

App: Calculate your job experience or age in years

Usually, all of those who works have to put years of experience on their resume or curriculum vitae. But 90% people put it wrong when they convert their experience in years only. Although they know the exact number of months and years but the conversion, they do is wrong. This happens because there are 12 months while the digit after decimal would be 0-9, i.e., 10 digits. Which means that we have to represent the number of months in terms of year. So here I have provided a small gadget to calculate it. Just put the date when you had started working in the From Date field and put current date in the To Date field. You can also calculate your age as well with this tool by putting your date of birth in the From Date field and put current date in the To Date field. As an alternative, you can use the hassle-free and simple to use  Date Differentiator  micro webapp. Bookmark it so you may easily access it later.
