*Note:- After account deactivation user can`t access jira, no Notification. But presence of deactivated user In wacther list kind of unpleasent.

Jira version 7.2.12

Hi @Sudheer Kumar Vempala,

You should be able to bulk change watchers with the following plugin.

https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.burningcode.jira.issue.customfields.impl.jira-watcher-field

It adds a custom field type of watchers which you can then create a custom field and add to screens.

Original question and solution.

Hope this helps
