      Problem Definition

      When creating a new project using a shared configuration, users and roles are not shared between projects. This way, when creating a new project where the same users will have the same roles, they have to be added manually.

      Suggested Solution

      Add the option to share the users and roles between projects or to copy them over to the new project when creating it.

      Workaround

      The only workaround would be to add the users to their roles manually.

            Adding my vote for this. It should be a checkbox that allows these roles to be copied over.

            In our organization, We create Projects with same configuration and add users in Roles. When we create new Projects we have to added the users in Role manually. There should be a feature to at least copy paste users from Roles to Roles.

            This feature would be extremely helpful when creating projects and would save time delivering projects. I hope Atlassian would consider this request as part of their maintenance releases for Jira.

            As companies merge, it is helpful to be able to copy the shared configuration within the division.
            Other possible solution would be to make Default Project Roles into schemes...
