Issue Types, Fields and Screens Flashcards
Where can you edit the description of a field?
Custom field and field configuration
Project fields example: data will be permanently lost if users move issues between projects
Component
Fix Version
Version Picker custom field
Global fields ( will be kept even when migrating somwhere else )
Labels
Where can you add statuses ?
- Status Page
- workflow editor
- Board configuration
you have 10 issues in the issue link type ‘blocks’ and 1 issue in the issue link type ‘blockx’.
Due to the incorrect issue link type name, you want to merge ‘blockx’ to ‘blocks’.
steps:
Delete your link type and then swap it to another link type.
You cannot use the bulk change operation to bulk edit Linked Issues
Conditions of creating a status from a Board:
- you need to be using the simplified workflow
- need to be jira admin OR (board and project admin)
Deleting a status is possible when ?
- there are no workflows associated to it
Make sure to check any JQL’s and anything using them
how are Resolutions added renamed or deleted ?
Resolutions page (global)
Deleting a resolution:
- Requires choosing another value
- May effect JQL’s referencing it
How do you limit the list of resolutions avaliable ?
Transition properties:
jira.field.resolution.exclude
jira.field.resolution.include
Resolution vs resolved things to keep in mind:
Resolution is indidpendent of status.
An issue with a resolution –> resolved
An issue without a resolution –> Unresolved
Resolution ** Cannot be cleared ** on a screen by the user
Priorities
Global
Has a priorities page
Deleting a priority requires a new value
Translations can be done on:
- Issue type
- Status
- Resolution
- Priority
Subtasks
Cannot exist without a parent
Can disabled globally in company managed projects by Jira Admins

- Different required or Hidden fields?
- Different screens when viewing editing or creating?
- Do they need reporting separate?
What do you do to chanage the issue type ?
A move operation.
You will need the move and create issues permission.
Map status is if teh workflow is different the new project.
Set values for the required fields in in the new target issue type.
What happens if an issue type screen scheme contains associations with issue types that are not specified in a project’s issue type scheme?
Then the mapping is ignored.
Can resolution be chnaged through bulk change ?
No, Only through post function
