This feature will help you to streamline your workflow and make data analysis even faster!

New HTML Functions

Result

ESCAPE_HTML("12&34")

UNESCAPE_HTML("12&34")

New Daylight Savings Functions

Savant has recently unveiled two new functions, to assist users in making time zone shifts that account for Daylight Saving Time (DST).

These functions return a Boolean value of either "true" or "false", allowing users to add or subtract an hour from a time zone shift.

IS_DURING_DAYLIGHTSAVING() will return a value of 0 if true and 1 if false, while IS_DURING_STANDARD() will return a value of 0 if true and -1 if false.

Turbo Charge Your JIRA Analyses with JQL

Savant now makes it easy to use your favorite JIRA reports in Savant. Simply drop your JQL into the JQL tab, and pull in your favorite JIRA reports for deeper analysis.
