Field Screen Schemes

Field Screen Schemes are used to add a field screen to an issue operation view. By using a scheme you are able to associate a different screen to each operation for a particular issue type or project. The available issue operations are:

• Create Issue - the Create Issue Details Screen
• Edit Issue - the Edit Issue Screen
• View Issue - the issue summary table on the View Issue Screen
  Note

  The View Issue field screen only applies to custom fields
