Using Scope for the Team-Manged Project Types
Working with Team-Managed project types (they are also called the Next-Gen projects) has some peculiarities. The issue types used to be with global entities shared across projects in Jira. Team-managed projects did not exist in the Server/Data Centre Jira. Therefore, for a more comfortable migration from Server / Data Centre to Cloud, the ability to work with Team-Managed projects is limited as they have project-specific configs.
