How can we make sure a global field is applied to all future JPD spaces?

[Florin Haszler]

It is annoying to create a global field in JPD apply it to all JPD spaces (they are still named projects though) and revisit the global field list and re-apply the settings after new JPD projects were created.

Does anyone know if there is a possibility to keep them global like in Jira?

Is there a feature planned in the JPD roadmap?

Maybe some fields are just usable in some spaces, but the configuration should allow us to specify that a field should by default be added to future JPD spaces.

Hi @Florin Haszler 

JPD spaces are in origin Team Managed projects, but there seems to be a solution.

See this announcement and article

• create-and-manage-global-fields

Thank you @Marc -Devoteam- for your time investment in searching these links.

Indeed, there is alleviation of the pain with the new fields page of each JPD space. 

However, this does not resolve the problem. It should be possible to define variables for all projects, as is available in Jira.

I hope this can be added as a feature request on the JPD roadmap.
