How do work types differ based on space type?

Work types distinguish different types of work in unique ways. They help you identify, categorize, and report on your team’s work across your Jira site. More about work types

In team-managed spaces, work types are the primary container for your work. A work type defines a type of task by capturing relevant information in its unique fields. Jira bounds any custom fields you add to the space. You can't share them with other spaces on your Jira site. Read about team-managed work type fields

In company-managed spaces, work types act as labels that help sort and report on tasks. Work types help Jira admins piece together other settings in mappings called "schemes". For example, Jira admins can map custom fields to a spaces's work items through a "work item screen scheme". Usually, Jira admins share these fields across many spaces on your Jira site.
