Issue Summary

Creating a new Company-managed project (both software and business projects) with shared configuration creates the project without a default board. Please add the ability to have a new default board when admins create new projects with shared configuration.

It is reproducible in Jira Server too: JSWSERVER-12804

1. Create a new project or have a previously created Software project available
2. Create a new project based on a shared configuration
3. Choose the previous Software project

Expected Results

The current functionality in this feature is expected as projects sharing configuration with other projects never had any board in the first place. However, it would be nice if we give customers the option to choose if they want to create the board too.

Actual Results

The new project is created but only a list of issues is visible and there is no board.

Switching the project type to business and then back to software does not correct the problem. Switching the project to a service desk project does result in a service desk project board however, switching back to software from service desk changes the board back to a business board.

Workaround

In your new project, under the project avatar in the sidebar, click the "Create Board" link. Create a new scrum or kanban board for an existing project, and make sure your current project is selected. The board and backlog will become available in the sidebar.
