Hi.

Using a 3rd party addon, I'm able to create Definition of Done for User Stories and Sub-Tasks, but they only work well when editing existing tickets. 

When I create a new Jira Issue, I'm not able to have Jira to allow me to have a custom checklist field.

Each User Story has their own checklist / Acceptance Criteria which has to be written while creating the Jira issue.

Is there an addon or some config setting in Jira to allow free-form checklist creation?

Is it possible to provide a title "Acceptance Criteria" and then have the reporter add their checklist to the Jira ticket while the create a new ticket?

Hi @Gil ,

 

most of the already existing checklist addons support automatic checklist assignment to an issue.

 

What you have to do is to create a proper Definition of Done/Acceptance Criteria template, configure when and where it should be applied and then simply modify the checklist after creation, if needed.

 

I am sure that for example Multiple Checklists should meet most of your requirements.

 

Regards,

  Jakub.
