How do we assign issues to two persons at the same time. I dont mean assign to one and other person

I need issues to be able to be assigned to two persons at the same time.

not a assignee and a watcher, two assignees.

Hi @Steve McDaniel 

It is not possible in Jira but you have some options.

• Preferably use sub-task and assign those to multiple assignee if people are working together at the same time.
• Use user picker (multiple users) field and add in your project. It won't behave like assignee field but you can do further customisations to notify those users in this field.
• Reassign to others in case they are not working at the same time. Use workflow transition to ask the user to select assign field.

There is lot of discussion on the community on this topic. You can search old post and check how others do it.

Hello @Steve McDaniel , the ability to assign issues to multiple people is not achievable. Take a look at KB and JRASERVER-1397 for some workarounds.
