 Description  « Hide
Currently, I need to give my project manager the jira-administor permission in order for him to create new projects. Unfortunately, this opens up the possibly of him doing other stuff, like changing the mail server. Not that he would, but when you give permissions...

Suggestion: Make Create New Project a separate global level permission.

It would be nice if the pro version could have this feature as well.

This should be extended to create a poweruser permission level. This level would allow superusers to assign powerusers the permission schemes they can operate under. This scenario allows the powerusers to fully operate as a data administrator thereby alleviating system admins from having to do data administration as is the case now.

I'd like to add my vote to this issue. I work in a large company, and we don't want to proliferate Big-Chair access all over the place. But we DO want lots of people to be able to create new projects. Is this a planned feature?

This would be a really useful feature

This would be tricky, I think. Because obviously they would need the ability to edit the project to set schemes and so forth, and the current interface allows editing existing schemes too.

To me, JIRA Administrators have access rights to everything while Project Administrators have the abilities to create/delete/edit projects. I also believe that a Project Administrator should be able to select schemes, just not edit them.
