Help Deleting an 'issue type'

Dan_Hunt

When I tried to delete an 'issue type', I'm seeing the following message:

Note: This issue type cannot be deleted - there are currently 1 matching issues with no suitable alternative issue types (only issues you have permission to see will be displayed, which may be different from the total count shown on this page).
In order for an issue type to be deleted, it needs to be associated with one workflow, field configuration and field screen scheme across all projects. If this is not the case, Jira can not provide a list of valid replacement issue types.

I have searched for the 1 matching issue and can't find it in our system

I'm an Admin
We only have 1 Permission Scheme set

Hi Dan

how did you search for the issue, via JQL?

issuetype = YOURISSUETYPE

Did you have a look to the available issue type schemes?

Cheers

Hi Kurt,

Correct, That is how I searched for the issue.
I looked at the issue type schemes and see the issue type that I want removed list there but my only option is to reorder it in the list.

Thanks,

Dan

Hi Dan

and the query did return issues that have that issue type in use?

If that is the case there are 2 options

Delete all the issues that have that issue type
Analyse the list of all issues of that type and migrate them to a different type, before you are able to delete the old one
