field vaules

Arun Jose October 8, 2013

We have two Projects and both share some of the same fields. When I create an issue in one of these projects I need one field to be inherited from that other projects field. Basically I want to link these two fields together.

any way out?

there is no link event supporting in jira yet, new feature request has submitted here

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-8505

so you can't update custom field when link issues but you can write script to do this

Hi

let me be clear .sorry

I have a field called Requirement ( custom field ) in Project x and field Requirement in Project Y.

When i link an issue from Project x to project y, i need the value of Requirement field in Project x to carry over to project y

so that data in the the field is same in both projects. we need this to get a hierarchy.

hope its clear.

thanks

Need more clarification, when you say inherit what do we mean. Say project 1 has 100 issues and 100 different values for that field. Now, you create a new issue in Project B, how does jira know which value to pick up from the 100 issues we already have on project A
