Project Issue Request Type

Project Management delivers a preconfigured project issue request type called Project Issue that can be used without additional configuration to log project-level issues. If you have installed Program Management, a separate but similar Program Issue request type is delivered for use at the program level.

The project issue request type's fields are described in Table 5-1. Project issue.
