How do I change the default bulk edit fields?

Question

Hi,

I am doing a lot of bulk edits for dates (start/due) as our timelines change, and its currently a bit annoying always having to click in the search field, search for start date, click it, then enter the value I want.

I would like to be able to set this as a default field that always shows up when doing a bulk edit, like the due date field does. How can this be achieved?

Hii Makayla,

In Jira Cloud, it isn’t currently possible to configure or change which fields appear by default in the Bulk Edit dialog. The default fields are system-defined, and any additional fields (such as Start date) must be added manually via search. Atlassian has an open feature request for this capability.
