Traffic Lights

Provides simple Traffic Lights custom field for Jira to track the status of important issue attributes. Change the light whenever needed to distinctly express issue status.

Create and configure the custom field

To create and configure the Traffic Lights custom field, you must be logged in as a user with Jira administrator permissions.

Go to Apps → Manage your apps → Custom Field Suite
Click on Create custom field button on the right side of the screen.
Select Traffic Lights and click Next.
Name and add a description to your field then click Next.
On the page with the Live preview click Next.
Associate the field to the appropriate screens and click Create. You must associate a field to a screen before it will be displayed.
To restrict editing access for the Multilevel Select Picker, the Edit Permissions tab is used. Specific users, user groups, and Jira roles can be defined to have editing permissions for the custom field. If editing access is intended for all users, the field should be left empty.

Please note that the create screen has a separate toggle that allows defining whether users without edit permissions can create values in create screens.
