One of my developers is receiving an error in Jira when cloning stories and epics. The error states "You do not have the "Modify Reporter" permission. You will be the report of the close issue." She is cloning her own stories and epics. Does anyone know why she would receive this error?

Hi @Anne Dixon 

Check the permission scheme, witch roles, groups or users have this permission?

Is the user part of any of the roles, groups or set as a user to this permission?

Even if the user is the original creator of an issue, cloning is not exactly creating an issue but a copying.

This action does require the Modify Reporter permission.
