Elevator for JIRA custom post functions are added to your issue workflow to automate the Escalation, Acknowledgment and Resolution of issues as they flow through their normal workflow.

For this example we are adding an Elevator post function that:

Automatically Escalates the issues to a selected roster on creation
Acknowledges the escalation when assignee starts work on the issue
Completes the escalation when the issue is Resolved
