Hey Gene,

 

What is probably going on is you added him as a JIRA Administrator and not a JIRA System Administrator.  To find out exactly what groups he needs to be in, Go to Administration -> System -> Global Permissions, and look what groups are needed for System Administrator level.  For our instance this is jira-administrators for both, but I believe the default is to separate them out now.

 

Hope that helps!

Makes sense Rodney - I'll have a look.

Thanks for your help.

I'm working with Bryan Ashley - bashley@streamnetworksinc.com - he purchased Jira for the company and shows as the admin.

He only sees Jira Admin - not Jira Systems Admin:

Alright Gene - based on what I'm seeing here you need to add him to the system-administrators group

We will give it a try - Thanks!!

He says that - That option is grayed out:
