Configuring Accounts

Configuring accounts requires the Jira Administrator permission.

Account configuration options include selecting whether accounts should be included in the target project when moving an issue between Jira projects, changing the name of the Account custom field, and making the field required in Jira default field configuration.

To change account configuration:

Click Jira administration at the upper-right.
On the Jira settings menu, select Manage apps.
Under Tempo Accounts in the sidebar, select Configuration.

You can also use a keyboard shortcut to access Tempo Accounts Configuration. Press g twice on your keyboard and start typing Accounts Configuration in the search box that appears.
