    The dropdown boxes that display when Managed in Jira is selected are determined by settings in the connected Jira instance.

    Tip

    The following selections only determine how Jira is structured and do not impact ZenGRC. For example, if you select "Epic" in the Audit issue type dropdown, your audit is created as an Epic in Jira. And the selection of "Task" in the Request issue type dropdown means all audit requests imported during audit set up will be created as Tasks in Jira.




    Tip

    Selections made in audit creation override settings chosen when establishing connection between your ZenGRC and Jira instances.
