In a team-managed project, theissue type screen(configured inProject settings > Issue types) determines which fields are displayed for an issue type and how they are organized (e.g., in sections like Description or Context fields). The true statement is thatyou can reorder custom fields within all sections of the screen(Option E), as team-managed projects allow flexible reordering of fields within their designated sections.

Explanation of the Correct Answer (Option E):

In team-managed projects, the issue type screen is configured per issue type, and fields (including custom fields) are organized into sections (e.g., Description fields, Context fields). Users with appropriate permissions (e.g., project admins) can reorder custom fields within any section of the screen to customize the layout, ensuring fields appear in the desired order for creation, editing, or viewing.

Exact Extract from Documentation:

Configure issue types in team-managed projects

Each issue type in a team-managed project has its own screen configuration, defining which fields are displayed and their order.

To reorder fields:

Go toProject settings > Issue types.

Select the issue type and edit its screen.

Drag and drop fields (including custom fields) within sections (e.g., Description fields, Context fields) to reorder them.Note: Custom fields can be reordered within any section of the screen, but some system fields have fixed positions.(Source: Atlassian Support Documentation, "Configure issue types in team-managed projects")

Why This Fits: The ability to reorder custom fields within all sections of the issue type screen is a standard feature in team-managed projects, making Option E the true statement.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

You can edit the name of any field on the screen (Option A):

In team-managed projects, you cannot edit the name of fields directly on the screen configuration. Custom field names are set when the field is created (Project settings > Project fields), and system field names (e.g., Summary, Description) are fixed. The screen configuration only allows adding, removing, or reordering fields, not renaming them.

Extract from Documentation:

Field names are set inProject settings > Project fieldsfor custom fields or are fixed for system fields. Screen configurations do not allow renaming fields.

You can reuse a custom field from another team-managed project (Option B):

Custom fields in team-managed projects are project-specific and cannot be reused across projects, unlike company-managed projects where global custom fields are shared. To use a similar field, you must create a new custom field in the project.

Extract from Documentation:

Custom fields in team-managed projects are unique to the project and cannot be reused from other team-managed projects.

You can add any field type to the Context fields section (Option C):

TheContext fieldssection (right panel in the issue view) has restrictions on which field types can be added. System fields likeSummary,Description, and certain others are fixed in the main section and cannot be moved to the Context fields section. Only eligible fields (e.g., custom fields, Labels, Components) can be added to this section.

Extract from Documentation:

TheContext fieldssection is limited to certain field types (e.g., custom fields, Labels). Core fields like Summary and Description cannot be moved to Context fields.

You can add any field type to the Description fields section (Option D):

TheDescription fieldssection (main section below the Summary) also has restrictions. Fields likeSummary,Issue Type, andStatusare fixed in their positions, and not all field types can be added to the Description fields section. Only certain fields (e.g., Description, custom text fields) are eligible.

Extract from Documentation:

TheDescription fieldssection is for fields like Description or custom text fields. Some system fields have fixed positions and cannot be moved.

Additional Notes:

Configuring issue type screens requiresproject adminprivileges in a team-managed project (Project settings > Issue types).

Reordering fields enhances usability by prioritizing important fields in each section.

System fields may have limited reordering options compared to custom fields.
