Problem with deletion of tasks or subtask

Silvia Mally Fattori October 1, 2020

Good morning I am using a trial version of Jira Software, and I am the Administrator. I can't delete tasks or subtask or change dates or delete releases. Why?

Thank you

Hi Silvia - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

You should be very careful about allowing the deletion of anything in Jira. It's usually best to include some type of status in your workflow such as Discard or Abort (Done type statuses). And just leave the issues there.

But if you really need to delete them, you need to change the Permission Scheme for the Delete Issues setting. Definitely don't allow persons other than Administrators to have that permission. 

Also check the Schedule Issues permission to allow Date changes and Releases.
