The link @Tarun Sapra provides is how JIRA works.  JIRA allows you to GIVE permissions. There is no provision for sub-dividing the work and deleting a permission a user would normally be able to do which is what is sounds like you want.

Hello @Cesar Bistron 

This is the complete overview of the Jira permission schemes

https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirasoftwareserver0713/permissions-overview-965543151.html

You have project admin permissions and the next level is Jira admin permissions. You will need Jira admin permission to delete screens or to do anything which involves generally working with shared objects like workflows, screens, field configuration.

 Project level administration

We've extended the project administrators permission, so that project administrators can now edit their projects workflow under certain conditions:

  • The workflow must not be shared with any other projects
  • The workflow cannot be the JIRA default system workflow, which cannot be edited at all

The project admins will not be able to edit the workflow to the same extent as a JIRA administrator. The restrictions are:

  • To add a status, the status must already exist in the JIRA instance i.e. the project admin can't create new statuses or edit existing statuses
  • The project admin isn't allowed to delete a status from the workflow
  • The project admin can create, update or delete transitions, but they can't select or update a screen used by the transition, or edit a transition's properties, conditions, validators or post-functions

This feature is enabled by default. When you upgrade to JIRA Software 7.3, all your project administrators will have access to this feature immediately. To edit a workflow, a project administrator should select Project settings in their project's sidebar, and select an issue type. This will present the workflow, and Edit Workflow will be available.
