Can't find "contexts and default values" under Actions in system field Description

Lucy Xu
Lucy Xu Jan 24, 2022

I log in as an administrator.

I want to set default value of Description. I do follow this instruction:

https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver0819/configuring-contexts-and-default-values-for-the-description-field-1085206757.html

but when I go to Actions, I only see "Screen" no "contexts and default values".

My jira version is server 8.19.

How can I set default value for Description successfully?
