I am running a JQL query to count how many issues have an empty value for the "Components" field versus how many issues have a non empty value for the "Components" field.
Here is the screenshot that I get for my 1st JQL query: category = "Cloud Services" and component is empty, the number of results is 6631:
Checking for null is equivalent to checling for empty, I have tried it and it returns the same.
Here is the screenshot for my 2nd JQL query: category = "Cloud Services" and component is not empty
The thing that confuses me is that I get 6631 results for my first query and I get 51372 results for my second result so 51372 +6631 = 58003
However, when I try to retrieve all the issues belonging to the Cloud Services category with this query: category = "Cloud Services", I get the following: I get 64879 as a result which does not match 51372 +6631 = 58003 computed above. Anyone knows why? Normally, the total number should correspond to the result of the 3rd screenshot since every issue contains components.
