Share issue type between Projects

Muhammad Akram Sharifi

I have an issue type where its shared between 2 other projects

Now I want to create a new screen scheme for one the project workaround I have done

1- copied the current scheme

2- renamed the schame and added the new screen I wanted.

3- associated the new scheme to the issue type in issue type screen scheme.

I see the issue type has a different screen scheme

But the Problem is 

it still shows that the new scheme is shared with 2 more projects.

anyone know how can I manage to other projects should use the same "Old" screen scheme and 1 project should use the new screen scheme.

I appreciate your Help in advance.

Hi @Muhammad Akram Sharifi,

If you associated your new screen scheme to an existing issue type screen scheme, then you have just added your freshly created screen scheme to all the projects the issue type screen scheme was already associated with. And probably that is 2 projects.

If you click on the link that says the screen scheme is associated with 2 projects, you will see which projects they are.

Just to make things a bit clear.

Project >> Issue type screen scheme >> Screen schemes >> Screens 

In a project you use screens to associate issue types with the appropriate custom fields for each issue type.

Every issue can be created / edited / viewed. So essentially for 1 issue, you can define 3 different screens, one for each operation.

You define a screen scheme to package those 3 screens nicely together.

But your project has also multiple issue types, potentially. To link issue types to the appropriate screen schemes, you use an issue type screen scheme. In that scheme, you define which screen scheme is associated with each issue type in your project.

If I understand your explanation correctly, you should create an additional issue type screen scheme to separate the configuration of your different projects.

Hope this helps!
