I got the following requirement to implement in jira software:
User accounts are members of 2 groups
- simple users
- advanced users
Depending on the membership of a group there should be used 2 different Create-Screens for new Issues in a project:
- simple user should get a "simple Screen" only with a few fields
- advanced users should get a "detailed Screen" with more fields
Is there any chance to get the requierement be implemented in Jira - at the moment I have no idea but I do also not find a workflow condition to check group membership of a user at a transition with could be a chance?
Thanks for any ideas

@Moses Thomas Thank for your ideas, but
- 2 issue types are not posible, because later in workflow advanced users shoudl complete the poor Information from simple users
- 2 project are also no option - same reason...

Hi @Manu, there's nothing out of the box that does what you're asking, but I'm sure we can think of some creative ways you might be able to use. For example: What if you used the "Issue Collector" function for the simple users and the regular Create screen for the advanced users?
Read more about the Issue Collector here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver071/using-the-issue-collector-802592637.html
Also, it is possible to check group membership in workflow transitions, but you'll need a plugin to do it. If you have Jira Server, check our Suite Utilities for Jira. https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/5048/jsu-suite-utilities-for-jira?hosting=server&tab=overview. There are probably others that provide similar functionality. I don't think this will help you on the "Create" action, but you could show or hide transition buttons (based on group membership) which launch different transition screens later in the workflow.
Hope this helps!

@ManuIt is possible, but the way i see it to work is choose issue types that are for advance users / issue types that are for simple users, and the associate issue type with screen scheme in which you have your custom screen with fields in it then associate the create operation in with this screen in this project and then use a validator that only allows users in one of these groups (simple or advance users) to create ticket ( you can display a simple message when they are blocked from creating ticket.
OR
You create separate project in Jira, one for advance and one for simple users,
and just user one screen scheme with fields as you have specified.
You will not give permission to simple users for project which is for advance user,
same also for the project which is for simple users you will not give permission to Advance users.
