I want to choose a new primary product team to show in the drop down.  Where/how do I create this?

Welcome to the Community!

If You Are Using Advanced Roadmaps (Jira Premium Feature)

1. Go to Jira Settings → Plans → Advanced Roadmaps.
2. Click Teams on the left sidebar.
3. Click Create Team.
4. Give your team a name (e.g., "Primary Product Team").
5. Assign team members and link it to relevant boards/projects.
6. Save the changes.

Now, when selecting a Primary Product Team, this new team should appear in the dropdown.

If You Need a Team Field in a Company-Managed Project

1. Go to Jira Settings → Issues → Custom Fields.
2. Click Create Custom Field → Select Dropdown (Single Choice).
3. Name it Primary Product Team and add the list of teams as options.
4. Associate this field with relevant screens.

Now, the Primary Product Team field should appear in issue creation/editing forms.

If You’re Using Jira Data Center Without Advanced Roadmaps

• Jira Data Center does not natively support teams like Jira Cloud does.
• You may need to use groups in User Management and tag teams manually in a custom field.
