How to add a custom field when creating a change request issue?

[Skender Kollcaku]

Hi,

I am new to Jira.

I created a custom field (type text) and I'd like to know how to add it in the change request issue type in a project view. I have access ass an administrator.

Any help would be appeciated!

Thanks,

Skender

You might have a separate screen for the 'Create' operation in your project. See https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Associating+a+Screen+with+an+Issue+Operation#AssociatingaScreenwithanIssueOperation-Associatingascreenwithanissueoperation

What do you mean by project view? On the screen while creating an issue? if so, check out https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Configuring+a+Custom+Field#ConfiguringaCustomField-Choosingscreens

Also see https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Defining+a+Screen

Ok. Porblem resolved.

I associated to the screen schema (create operation) the default screen (the same of my custom field).

Now I see my CF in create issue.

Thanks a lot!!! You were correct.

Hi Jobim,

This is the situation:

• our project is in the Default Issue Type Scheme
• our custom field in Default Screen (general information)
• issue type - Default Screen (general information)

But I still cannot see our custom field in the form create new issue and also I do not see it in the views -> XML.

What could be the problem?

Thanks,

Skender

I mean project, in the sense that this issue belongs to a certain project.

Anyway, yes, screen when creating an issue. I have already put Default Screen.

Thanks Jobin,

Skender
