I'm looking for a comprehensive listing of tasks that project admins can perform on their own projects vs a list of what only JIRA Admins can do. Can you tell me where to find such a beast? This would be on JIRA and JIRA Agile.
Project admins can maintain the list of versions, components and users in roles in their projects. With JIRA Agile, they also get the ability to start and end sprints, and maintain boards. That's all they get over a "normal" user.
So really, in the Project Admin Summary view, Project Admins can maintain almost anything in the right-hand column but nothing in the left side? What about notifications?
Correct. All the stuff that is handled by "schemes" is a Jira Admin job - permissions, notifications, issue types, screens, fields, and so-on - all Jira admin stuff. I did forget one though - if a Jira admin selects "simplified workflow" for a project, then the project admins may also add/remove status from the workflow (An Agile function, can't do it in plain JIRA)
There are a some add-ons on the Atlassian Marketplace that will allow you to expand the functionality of the Project Administrator. Deiser's Profields is one (allows you to maintain fields in the project). We have 2: Delegated Administration for JIRA (allows selection of schemes by project administrators and maintenance of permissions and notification schemes) and Project Creator for JIRA (allows you to delegate the creation of projects to non-admin).
There are more so if you're looking at expanding capabilities of the project admins, you might want to look around (some are more enterprise friendly than others). If you're just wanting a list of what can be done right now - I would take look to through your add ons list as well.
Hello Kimm,
In additional to the others responses, I'd also suggest you to check this other answer as well.
Hello there,I face the same challenge but also for Confluence.
I'm mostly driven by finding a way to delegate the following to power users
It looks like many of the desired delegates are possible reading through the pages listed below. The only thing that isn't possible to have Jira power user, who can create global user groups. The only option is properly only Delegated Group Management in Jira or Group Ambassadors.Confluence allows to delegate most of the system administrator permission, see Global Permissions Overview and Create and update groups.
Global Permission or Group? Clearing up confusion on JIRA Administrators
How to see user-group-members as a non-system-admin?

Hi Daniel,
What exactly is the budget of these plugin and which team provide support to this plugin?
Thanks,
Nidhi
Note that there were some changes to this from Jira SW 7.3 (release Jan 2017) and onwards:
"Project level admins can now modify workflows without relying on global admins to make changes, giving them more control over their own processes while reducing requests on global admins. They can create, edit or delete transitions, or add an existing status to a custom workflow"
In short - Project Admin can modify workflow if it doesn't affect any other project.
