This can also be accomplished with java scripts embedded in the description fields of a custom field. (mentioned here https://confluence.atlassian.com/jira/fields-allowing-custom-html-or-javascript-224401453.html )

Be aware that it might break while upgrading to a new JIRA version, so these customizations will always have to be rigorously documented and maintained when servers are overhauled for one or more reasons.

You can do this with JJUPIN, it's a very simple thing.

You have to create a small script that watches over the issue type and the description and sets the value of the second one from the first one.

A similar example, but with some other fields is here: https://confluence.kepler-rominfo.com/display/TR/Default+values+of+%28system%29+fields+on+create+screen

 

Hope this helps,

Alexandra

Hello @zakirov_em

Default values for system fields isn't supported in JIRA, please see here - https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-4812

But this functionality can be achieved using plugins like Script Runner.

Please see here - https://confluence.atlassian.com/jira/setting-a-default-value-in-the-description-field-166003857.html
