Different form configuration per project

Added by Michael Apelt over 6 years ago

Hello,

as an example: you could have a work package type "bug", but want to have different fields shown depending on the project.

Is there a way to realize that without having to create two "bug" work package types?

Thanks for all answers.

RE: Different form configuration per project - Added by Oliver Günther over 6 years ago

Hi Michael,

for the default attributes (such as Version, Category, ...), the form configuration would span all projects. However with Custom Fields you have another dimension available that you can control:

  1. Enable the custom field in the global "Bug" form configuration
  2. Enable the custom field only in those projects that should have the field. Other projects will not show the field and also hide an attribute group that becomes empty due to hidden fields.

More information / Help resources

Best,

Oliver
