Adding fields to issues

Elisabet April 25, 2019

We would like to know how to add the Field "Deadline" to all the issues (regardless the project), so that anyone creating a project could add the deadline easily.

So far, we found how to do it project by project and we changed the default option, but we can't seem to find and option to change all the issue options at once.

Is there any way to do it?

Thanks in advance,
Elisabet

Hello,

You should add the field to the screens, used by this issue type in all projects. If you created a different screen scheme for each project, then you should do it in every project, if your projects share a single screen scheme, then you can do it once.

Hi Alexey,

Thanks for the quick reply. 

Is there a way to have just one screen scheme for all the projects? Every time we create a new project there are two screens created by default only for that project.

This are our first steps with Jira, so we are just sorting things out.

That is right, new screens are created, but if all your projects must use the same screens for an issuetype, then you should change this default configuration and assign the same screens to this issue type. Administration of your Jira will be easier for you.
