Hello Team,

I am new to JIRA,

Hi Yashesh,

One way to do it  is to:

* Copy default screen to for instance Default Screen 2
* Every time that you create a new custom field then assosiat it to the Default 2 screen
* Make sure that the new projects are using Default Screen 2

If you are using JIRA 7 or above and the new projects are similar (workflow, issue types, etc) then you could create new projects using "Shared Configuration" and have one as template which has the Default Screen 2

Cheers

Carlos
