Jira system fields and their meaning

Jira has some predefined fields that you can select when creating a ticket. Since you cannot remove them from the system, they are called system fields.

Here are the most important system fields explained:

• Assignee: the Jira user who is working on the issue.
• Summary: a short summary of the task
• Description: detailed description of the task
• Reporter: created the task
• Task type: specifies the task type (new feature, bug, etc.)
• Priority: importance compared to the other tickets
