      I added all of our customers to have the permission "Modify reporter", expecting that this would allow them to see and modify "Raise this request on behalf of" in the Service Desk customer portal. However, according to Matthew's comment towards the end of the comment chain here https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSD-1285 , "raise this request on behalf of" is a special field that cannot be seen by non-agents regardless of Reporter modification permissions.

      Is there a way to allow our customers to see and modify "raise this request on behalf of"? We have executive assistants who frequently request access and equipment on behalf of executives so this is a must-have for us

            Hello,

            I had the case for some of my support teams who were customers on other services (other projects). I simply managed the permissions associated with the project. Add the support team group to : Service Desk Agent + Modify reporter without adding it to other permissions. It works, without the support team being able to modify another department's ticket.

            However, you still need a Jira license to access this field and the list of associated customers. Otherwise, you need to set up an alternative, such as managing an additional field and an automation rule that updates the requester when the ticket is created.

            Bearing in mind that releasing this type of access can have quite disastrous security consequences on access to large e-mail lists, this is a subject that Atlassian will be studying with the utmost vigilance.

            Regards,

            A manager opening tickets on behalf of their direct reports, consultants, and contractors is a common occurrence. Secretaries also need to open it for the groups they support.

            The lack of this functionality is causing significant issues for our support of external users.  Not everyone follows the process to open a request on the portal.  We need this ASAP.  It shouldn't take eight years to get the problem fixed.

            this should be a standard option for ITSM solution. People often report issues on behalf of their colleagues, so im surprised that Atlassian is putting this for a vote and haven't introduced it yet.

            Hello,

            We also really need this feature to be implemented for all users and not only for agents.

            Thanks in advance,

            Best

            Valerie
