Hi @Tal.Elbaz
This depends if you're on Server/DC, or Cloud!
Server/DC, and Company-managed Cloud Projects
In these instances, you can manage the setup of the Create Screen, separate to the View/Edit Screen.
You'll need to be a Jira Admin, and then...
- Go to Jira Settings > Issues
- On the left-hand menu, select Screens
- Locate the relevant Screen
- You need the Screen related to your Create Issue operation. This is identified from your Screen Scheme.
- Move the fields into your desired order
- Repeat for any other Create Screens related to different Issue Types in the Issue Type Screen Scheme
^ Note:
- If you only have one Screen for all operations in Cloud, it's not an issue to change the order of fields, as the View/Edit operations' screens are governed through the Issue Layout.
- But, if you require your Edit and Create Screens to be different in Server/DC, you might need to copy the Screen, and associate screens to the right operators in the Screen Scheme.
- How Screens, Screen Schemes, and Issue Type Screen Schemes work can be quite confusing - check out this help page for a good diagram to explain this!
Team-managed Projects (Cloud)
In Team-managed, you can reorder the fields but there are limits - mainly that field types remain in order - so Description Fields are top, then Context Fields below them.
This is because the Issue Layout governs all the operators - Create, Edit, and View - all using one Screen design.
But, to change the order to an extent, you'll need to be a Project Admin and then...
- Go to Project Settings > Issue Types
- Select an Issue Type
- Modify the field order using drag/drop
- Press Save Changes
- Repeat for other Issue Types where necessary
