Project and Team

[Jawad BAKHTEIARY]

I have three different projects: A,B and C. for EACH project I have two teams; Marketing and Software. How can I make two departments for each project where I as admin can watch the members and everyone assign tasks each other. I can create one project and under that I can assign tasks but the problem is I need two different department/ Team.

Welcome to the Atlassian community!

Adding to this...

Other information that will be helpful is if you tell us the Type of the projects you are using. Go to the View All Projects page under the Projects menu. Find your projects in that list. Tell us what it says in the Type column for each project.

Also, what is your level of access? You said you are an administrator but are you an administrator for just the Projects? Or are you a Jira Product Administrator? If you are the third one, then when you click the gear icon near your avatar you will see options like System, Issues, Projects, Products, and more.

That's right. Knowing if the project will share resources or have their own will help determine whether it is best to go with Company or Team managed projects.

I assumed he was trying to set this up and so did not have the projects created yet. I should not "assume" this so thank you for clarifying. 

Being an admin was also assumed.

There is a lot of context missing from your question. First, will the marketing and software teams be the same people for all the projects or will each have different people in those positions?

Let's start there. That will lead us to the best approach to achieve your desired behavior.

[Jawad BAKHTEIARY]

Yes they are the same people. 

Suppose Alex and Jimmy work in the marketing department for Project A and B together. in the department of software development, Alina and Karl. So I want alina can assign tasks to karl and vice versa without allowing Jimmy and Alex to see, although they are working in same project. because they work in different departments. 

I should be able to see all their tasks as admin of the projects.

In order to hide a subset of issues in a Jira Project from users who otherwise have access to see the content of the project you will need to implement Issue Security.

You may be better off separating the work of the two teams into separate Jira Projects so you can limit access by limiting the Browse Projects permission for each project.
