# Introduction

> ℹ️ Some functionality in Jira - like creating/editing Versions and Releases - available only Jira/Project Admins. This is not very flexible when you have multiple teams and projects and you run cross-project release management.
> ℹ️ 
> ℹ️ Therefore, we introduced additional permission, namely:
> ℹ️ 
> ℹ️ - **Project level Release Management**
> ℹ️ 
> ℹ️ to let non-Admins to create/edit versions. This gives admins a bit more flexibility to delegate this function to certain groups and unlock engineering teams on their execution.

# Versions/Releases Management Permissions

To let non-admins create / edit releases in Jira (delegate this role to certain group of people) you need to navigate to Admin and find Permission schemes.

You can either change the default schema or *create an “escalated“ one (recommended).*

Click **Grant permission**.

Decide if you want to assign this permission to either individual, role or group …
