missing permission to delete a release/version

[Andreas Kemper]

Hello out there.
Another question/problem came up today.

I had to present some Jira features to my management today.
In this context, I created a version/release in a Jira Scrum project. After the meeting, I wanted to delete the version again to have a clear project for the next presentation. Unfortunately, the "Delete" option in the version context menu is disabled.
Jira tells me that I don't have the permission to delete a version/release.

But hey, I'm an Org Admin.
I have the highest permission level in the world.
The release itself is empty. There are no assigned Issues.

So why is Jira stopping me?
What setting do I need to make so that I can delete the release again?

Thanks for any ideas
Andreas :-)

Hi @Andreas Kemper 

Still the check the permissions on the project. 

Are you in the admin role on the project?
