Custom Fileds

[Atul.Khanduri]

Hi Team,

I was making a JIRA Bug management project, and I wanted to add a custom field like Description fields or Context fields under which I can make other fields. Could you please guide me how to do so?

Hi @Atul.Khanduri 

Welcome to the Atlassian Community 

It is the jira layout view and it's not possible to add new one like the Description/Context fields but you can try adding Tabs on your Screen which can help you categorize related field under one tab.

Here is the documentation on how the layout view work https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/configure-field-layout-in-the-issue-view/ 

Let me know if this helped

Thanks. Actually, currently we have to maintain so much data for a bug or work request. I have attached screenshot of the fields. Can you suggest how we can manage this

Is your project Team-Managed?

If so we can't add tabs.

But for the data you can create custom fields from the 'Create A Field' option available on the right hand side of your screen. 

This reference document gives you more info

If you want to organize them based on Tabs I would suggest you to go with Company Managed project and screens can be configured as per your needs by the Jira administrator of your org.
