JIRA - How do I allow a user selected assignee to override default assignee (reporter)

lee rosenberg

I want to assign the issue to the reporter (default), unless the user wants to assign
it to a different user (assignee field is shown on workflow screen).

Any suggestions?

Hello,

You could add this into your field configuration. Add the reporter by default when create issue :

<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
    JIRA.bind(JIRA.Events.NEW_CONTENT_ADDED, function (e, context) {
        setAssignee();
    });

     setAssignee();
    function setAssignee(){
        var setUser = AJS.$("#reporter-field").val();
        alert (setUser);
        AJS.$("#assignee-field").val(setUser);
    }       

});
</script>
