How to automate a Jira issue creation on two asset objects at the same time

Rachel Wang_ukecdp

Request:

• Our customer has a different naming system of assets from us.
• When a customer raise a Jira issue ticket on the customer portal, they need to input information with asset under customer's asset naming system.
• The Jira issue ticket should also appear on (link to) the internal asset object in Jira under the internal asset naming system

My Approach:

• Create list of asset objects under the customer asset naming system
• Add an attribute in the internal asset objects, to store the corresponding asset object with name of the customer asset naming system mentioned above
• Set custom asset field on the request form, so that customers are able to select from internal asset objects, but with names from customer's naming system presented in the drop down list
• The tickets created by customers are then linked to the internal asset objects

Problem with my Approach:

When customers view the issues they created in the customer portal, the name of internal asset object shows up in the asset field, rather than the name of the attribute (which are names under customer naming system).

Hi @Rachel Wang,

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

It is the field that is set to the label in Assets that will be displayed in the field on the portal. So in order to only show the customer facing name you would need to change which field is the label in Assets, but that will also affect the backend. But unlike the portal you can view more attributes on the backend so you could include the internal name that is displayed.
