Team-managed fields arrive on the Fields Page: Rollout details & what’s coming soon

[#1]

Hi Jira admins, it’s Carol here again 👋

I’m happy to announce that we are bringing team-managed fields into the Fields page.

What’s coming now

Starting in early November, team-managed fields will be available on the main Fields page, allowing you to manage them alongside company-managed fields. We’re also introducing a new “Can be used in” filter for quick access to team-managed fields.

Centralizing all fields on one page simplifies auditing and standardization, streamlines field governance, reduces duplication, and enables admins to quickly spot inconsistencies or gaps.

You may notice that the description formatting is strange for JPD fields - they are in rich-text but don’t display as such in the Fields page - we recommend editing these in JPD for now

What’s coming soon

• Edit options for select field types with a single context (for both team and company-managed fields)

• Trash Team-managed fields (instead of permanent delete)

Thanks again for all your feedback and continued partnership - leave a comment and let us know how you liked it.

Great improvement! Also having those team managed field in the site optimizer is a big help. Looking forward to the remaining field changes.

Hi Carol! As long as I can get a company-managed field only option in the filter this looks great. I don't always want to see JPD or Teams fields.

Spaces?.. Have projects be renamed to Spaces in Jira? 🤔
Or, can these fields be used in Wiki spaces?

The idea is great for better governance, thank you - probably, there will be a single place to eliminate duplicate fields now!

But spaces...

Awesome update @Carol Low 

Having team-managed fields on the Fields page will definitely make things easier to manage.

Excited for the "Can be used in" filter and the upcoming features like trashing team-managed fields, it's super useful.

Thanks for the heads-up on the JPD formatting too! Keep it up! 👍

[Patrick Miller]

Excellent. Keep up the great work!

[Carol Low]

@Steve Rhodes - Yes this is the "All spaces" option in the dropdown, as only company-managed fields can be used in all spaces. We call them company-managed field colloquially but we want to be clear about what it means (where it can be used).

@Eugene Victorov - Projects are being renamed to Spaces. It's still rolling out so your instance may not reflect it yet.

@Carol Low thanks for keeping the great enhancements coming! This will be incredibly helpful.
