Jira-Core Server 7.7 Only Seeing 3 Project Templates - Where are the other 5 Business Templates?

Question

I just deployed Jira-Core Server 7.7 but don't see the 5 Business project templates or a way to enable them.

I only have Project Management, Task Management and Process Management visible.

Content Management, Recruitment, Document Approval, Lead Tracking and Procurement are all missing.

I thought I would see this as mentioned here- https://www.atlassian.com/blog/hr-teams/jira-admins-5-new-business-templates-to-make-onboarding-easier

I was under the impression this was part of the Jira-Core offering.

Any way to make these available?

Thanks

I understand you need to milk money from the cloud, but you have to be clear about difference in features between cloud and server. This has cost lots of time and I'm looking at Jira alternatives. The surprising thing is the expert doesn't really know and cant' give any definite answers. Maybe the issue is solved? Who knows, I don't think they use issue tracking for these posts. How ironic. And with no resolution posted here I'm still searching to see if this has been resolved.

Having the built in flexibility for companies using JIRA to use JIRA in other ways is, in my opinion, an absolute necessity.

It is very disappointing that a very basic feature such as a project template even needs to be requested when it's already offered in basically the same product.

It can't be that difficult to add the template files to the server update versions.

We shouldn't have to vote for this "feature." You already offer it. Actually offer it to all of your customers.

I've been a very loyal Atlassian supporter for a number of years but this completely baffles me. Now I have to wonder, what will you withhold for no reason next?

Sorry all, I should have included this existing feature request in my last reply: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-65464

This is a feature request to bring those same project templates in Jira Cloud into the Jira Core Server product as well.   I would recommend watching and voting on that issue if you want to see this in Jira Server.   Should these project templates be included in a future release of Jira server, I would expect this ticket to be updated to reflect that.
