Custom Issue fields?

web-app

We are thinking of using the Gemini product at my work to replace our old system. However, we have some key fields that we report on regularily that I was wondering was possible to add as custom fields.

Currently in the issue properties, there is an estimated time, logged time and timeleft fields. Our need to have a few more time fields, like for BA Estimate, Dev Estimate, BA Actual, Dev Actual, BA time Left and Dev Time left... and not have the time left be updated by the Estimate - Logged. This is because we often track how close are estimates were to actual development and want to maintain the actual estimate rather than have to change it to reflect the actual.

Is is possible to add custom Issue fields? I haven't found any documentation on how to do it yet, so I thought I would post here.

Thanks in advance and I hope to hear back soon :)

Yes, you do this via the administration menu -> custom fields.

Note that the custom fields will have to be updated manually and can not be auto calculate.

Can I ask another questions?

I made a custom field called BA Estimate and set Yes for on Issue Edit, Create and View.

Then I have a visibility scheme TestVSScheme and I check off the new custom field BA Estimate and set visibility to "Everyone".

Then I go to my test project and set the Visibility Scheme to be the TestVSScheme. Then I go to add a new issue in the project and my custom fields are not showing on the Create or when I go to edit an existing issue. Is this a bug or did I miss any steps?

We are using version 3.1.1. Thanks

Yes, you need to edit the issue types (admin section) and set the visibility scheme for create, edit and view.

Hi, just wondering, is there any way for those custom fields to show up in that quick to access issue menu on the right hand side, or would you guys ever consider putting that functionality in?

We need to add 6 custom estimating fields and it doesn't look pretty whne they are all listed as "Additional Information"

Again, thanks in advance ;)
