By default, it is not possible to edit an issue while in the "Closed" state. However, if you would like to allow editing of closed issues, then you can do this by editing the workflow:
Default Workflow
In the file ./atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/classes/jira-workflow.xml change:
<step id="6" name="Closed">
<meta name="jira.status.id">6</meta>
<meta name="jira.issue.editable">false</meta>
<actions>
<common-action id="003"/>
</actions>
</step>
to:
<step id="6" name="Closed">
<meta name="jira.status.id">6</meta>
<meta name="jira.issue.editable">true</meta>
<actions>
<common-action id="003"/>
</actions>
</step>
Restart JIRA after you've made this change.
Customised Workflows
You will need to add/edit the property to the Workflow Step.
- Navigate to the Workflow step
- Click on View steps properties.
- Add or edit the property - Key: jira.issue.editable Value: true
* Note that you can not edit Active Workflows. You must deactivate before making this change.
(Alternatively, you can make the same change to the xml as described for the Default Workflow. You will need to edit the data in the database directly)
