Info

Changing the Defect mapping does not alter existing Issues; however, Issues of non-mapped Types will not appear in reports that rely on Issue Type mapping, such as the Traceability report.


UI Steps
UI Step

To override the global Defect Mapping set by Jira admins, project admins must enable the Override Global Defect Issue Type Mapping toggle (Figure 3 - 1).

If a project admin does not override the global Defect Type Mapping, the Global defect mapping is used. Defects are still logged based on the global settings if no override is made.

 If the Override Global Defect Issue Type Mapping toggle is not enabled, the entire settings page will not be adjustable.

UI Step

Once enabled, the Issue Types can now be configured as Defects by dragging the Issues from the Available Issue Types list (Figure 3 - 2) to the Defect Issue Types list (Figure 3 - 3).

Multiple Issue Types be mapped as Defects. All Issue types you have on your Jira instance will appear on the Available Issue Types list (certain apps you download (like Xray) may give you new Issue Types).

Previously created Defects retain their original Issue Type.

UI Step

Once you're finished configuring, click Save (Figure 3 - 4).

Info

A project re-index operation is necessary to retain the accuracy of Xray Reports when there are changes to Requirement Issue Type Mappings (if this is the case, Xray will prompt you).
