I wonder if it's possible to specify ticket "types" in Jira and have specific data that MUST be filed in for a given ticket type. Say we have a "campaign start" ticket type. In that the creator must set a few dates, attach a file with some data etc. And also have a default cost in time for a given ticket type so that an estimated date when it could be started and done could be shown. Is this possible?
Edit: By And also have a default cost in time for a given ticket type so that an estimated date when it could be started and done could be shown. I mean if it would be possible to set that a 'campaign start' type of standard ticket would require 3 days of work to get done. So that if we let a specific few people create tickets they could see like a time-line of when their ticket could be started on and when it could be assumed to be completed.
Yes - there is quite a bit possible with JIRA, including enforcing fields at certain stages and so on / so forth. This is all well documented on the Atlassian site, or you can work with one of their partners (like us :-) ...) for setting up your project configuration.
Enforcing certain fields can be done through the field configuration scheme or through the use of specific plugins.
Could you elaborate on
