Create a issue from custom field

[David Lockhart]

I want the ability to have JIRA create another ticket in another project if a specific custom filed is selected. For example if the issue you are creating is stating that it is an outage then in the outage project it create a ticket automatically.

Create on Transition for JIRA can do that on a transition by conditioning the create based on the custom field value. See How to use pattern matching conditioning.

You'll need a bit of code to do that.  There are "create issue on transition" post-functions in add-ons, but you might not be able to use them because of the "specific field selected" part.

Of course, I'd use the Script Runner add-on to write a script that says "if field, then create issue", but I would say that as I work for Adaptavist.  (I'd actually have said the same if I didn't work there, but you'd have to take my word for that)
