Many FNC jira ticket types are cloned to cut down on the amount of data entry. When tickets are cloned, the Assignee, Reporter, and approver/manager is inherited from the source ticket. It would be ideal if these fields were blank. Often times the users cloning can not remove the assignee of a ticket, and don't know who the ticket should be assigned to. This is creating confusion when working tickets.
Cloning does what it says - it makes a near identical clone of an issue. The whole point of cloning is that it takes assignee, reporter, manager and all the other fields.
I would very strongly recommend that if you want a copy of an issue with different fields, create a new one and put the right data on it. Stop using clone.
