Questions on setting up boards.

Dmitry_tf0iv1

1. Is it possible in jira to make a field (of the same kind as the field author or performer - with a drop-down list of users) only with a different field name? What would be the opportunity to appoint a person (who is in the system) in this field. How to do it? How to make a drop-down list of users at the field.

2. Why don't I see the time mark in the task card on the Kanban board?

Hello Dmitry,

Thank you for raising this question.

Can you confirm if you are using a classic project or a next-gen project? If you are not sure about it, you can simply send me a screenshot of your project main page.

Supposing that you are using a Classic project template, you must configure a User Picker Custom Field to achieve the functionality you need.

There are two kinds of User Picker Custom Fields:

- Multiple Users - Allow you to select multiple users from the drop-down

- Single Users - Allow you to select a single user from the drop-down

To create it, you can navigate to your JIRA main page > JIRA Settings > Issues > Custom Fields and click to create a new custom field. Then, add it to your project screens.

P.S: You can also type GG and use the search box to find the Custom field menu if you have enabled your JIRA shortcuts.

About your second question, can I know exactly what is the field that should be appearing on your card? Is it the time estimation itself or your Story points?

I ask the question above because it will depend on how your board is configured on the ... > Board Settings > Estimation (This option is also only available in the Classic Project template)

Please, send us a screenshot of your board displaying where the "time mark" should be displayed on your cards.
