Use case

In Jira it is not possible to restrict the creation of issues with specific issue types to certain user/ user groups/ project roles.

In the following use case, we restrict the issue creation to the project roles Developers and Software Tester.

In this use case we assume that there is a separate workflow for each issue type in the project.

If you only have one workflow that is used by several issue types, check out the corresponding use case.
