Is there a way to prevent Portfolio from automatically assigning an item to a team?

[Ed Guy]

I am using Portfolio primarily for it's reporting capabilities (the full-hierarchy CSV export).  The portfolio includes multiple Jira Software projects.  Portfolio "Teams" are based on Scrum Boards in those individual Jira Software projects.  Portfolio is automatically associating items to teams; I want it to stop.

At the Portfolio level we identify teams using the Component/s field.  If Portfolio insists on assigning teams for me, can I make it use the Component/s field or the Project field as a basis for that assignment?

Portfolio lets you assign a team/ board or automagically assigns it if you have one team/ board (since there is only one team/ board).
If you are using the component field to assign a team, then create the issue and select the component from the drop down in the newly created issue row. You may need to add the component field using the little tool gear toggle.

Hope this helps.
