Summary is a system field. But i have to rename this field . Is there any way to do that
Hi @lavanya j ,
You cannot rename standard, out of the box fields in JIRA. This includes filelds like Summary, Description, Labels, Versions, etc.

There is a New Feature request to better handle this, as tracked in
https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-21293
You can translate it into other languages, or directly hack the language file you are using (which leaves you unsupported), but I would recommend that you do not waste your time on it. It's going to take a bit of effort, but also confuse people who have used Jira before and make supporting it more difficult. I can't think of a good reason to change it, "summary" is the right word already.
