Hi @Ste Wright

Thanks for your Response,

Here is my answers for your questions.!

* How would the form decide if a field should have default settings? Is it based on another field? Or based on the user type? Or?

In our custom form field, We manually entered some for the values and those values are by default we entered that are mandatory(like while user submit a request by default it was picked). Please refer the attached Image, So It's based on user Type.!

* Will there be options in a field a user can edit, and some they cannot ?

Yes, That's our problem we want to make that values are not editable like have to greyout.!

Thanks & Regards,

Hi @[deleted]

Can I ask some clarifying questions?

* How would the form decide if a field should have default settings? Is it based on another field? Or based on the user type? Or?
* Will there be options in a field a user can edit, and some they cannot?* If no, could these fields simply not be added to the form?
* If yes, could the "default options" be added post-creation?

Depending on the logic, it might be possible to do this using:

* Forms: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-service-management-cloud/docs/use-forms-in-jira-service-management/
* Automation (if post-creation): https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-cloud-automation/

But, there might be another option if you can answer the questions above and provide us some additional detail :)
