Update project field values

 

Edit fields from Project data page

In this section, you will learn how to add values to the project fields that you have already organized in layouts.

1. Go to the project tab containing the layout of fields that you wish to edit.

2. Click on the Project data tab.

3. Click on "Edit values" button to enter the edit mode.

 

4. Type or pick the desired value.

 

5. Click on "Save" button.



Note: the values of the fields will remain even if you apply a different layout to the Jira space or Projectrak project.

Edit values from the Project Navigator

You can also edit field values directly from any of the three views available in the Project Navigator: List, Board, and Timeline. Each view offers a different way to interact with your project data.

List view

To change a cell's value, click it and type or select the new value. If you lack permission to edit, you cannot click or change the cell value.

Change a value in List view

For more details, see View type: List.

Board view

Use drag and drop to move cards between columns, which updates the field value for that project. Blue columns are available destinations; the green column shows the current value. If you do not have edit permissions, the card will be grayed out.

Move cards in Board view

For more details, see View type: Board.

Timeline view

The Timeline view lets you edit date-related fields directly on the canvas. You can create or adjust project duration bars and milestones without leaving the timeline.

Project duration bar

Double-click on an empty line to create a new bar. To adjust dates, drag the bar at the beginning or the end.
