Comparing Company-Managed Project Differences Between Two Jira Accounts

[Muhammad Azmi Adhani]

Hello fellow Jira Software users,

I've encountered some intriguing differences between two of my Jira accounts, particularly in the context of company-managed projects. I wanted to share these disparities with you and seek your insights and experiences.

Account 1:

• In my first account, company-managed project's backlog issues have a status dropdown menu, allowing me to change the issue status directly from the backlog view.
• There is a right-click menu available for backlog issues, offering various options for quick actions.
• The version and epic filter are positioned at the top of the screen for easy access and filtering.

Account 2:

• In contrast, in my second account, company-managed project's backlog issues do not feature a status dropdown menu, making it necessary to navigate into the issue to modify its status.
• Additionally, there seems to be a lack of a right-click menu for backlog issues in this account, which limits the available options for managing issues directly from the backlog view.
• The version and epic filter are located on the side of the screen, altering the user interface and potentially affecting the workflow.

Image Comparison: I've included an image to illustrate some of these differences visually, providing a clearer picture of the variances between the two accounts:

1. Status Dropdown

   • Account 1:

   • Account 2
2. Right click menu on backlog issues

   • Account 1:

     
   • Account 2:
     
3. Filter menu and backlog sprint
   

   • Account 1:
     

   • Account 2:
     

Now, I'm curious to hear from the Jira community:

1. Have you encountered similar differences between your Jira accounts or within your team's Jira instances?
2. Do you know if these disparities are a result of specific settings, permissions, or configurations that can be adjusted?
3. Are there any tips or tricks you can share for optimizing the use of company-managed projects, especially in scenarios where such differences exist?

I appreciate any insights or guidance you can provide as I aim to make the most of my Jira experience and streamline project management in both of my accounts.

Thank you in advance for your help!
