How to add email notification when user added to custom fields

Hello Saranya,

Here are a couple of solutions, based on how the project(s) in your Jira instance will use the "QA assignee" field.

1. Will this custom field "QA assignee" be used in all of the projects in your Jira instance?
   If so, then you will have to configure the "Issue Updated" event in your default notification scheme.
   
   (Recommended)
2. If the "QA assignee" will not be used in all of the projects in your Jira instance, then you will have to create a Custom Notification Scheme. A Custom Notification Scheme can be assigned to one or more projects.  Therefore if  you have 30 projects in your Jira instance and the "QA assignee" field is used in 1 project, you can assign one Custom Notification Scheme to that 1 project.  Moreover, making a change to the Custom Notification Field will affect only the 1 project.
   
   You can create many Custom Notification Schemes and assign them to individual projects or a group of projects.
   
   
   

SUMMARY:  I suggest that you create a Custom Notification Scheme for the project(s) that will use the "QA assignee" field.  

Here is a link to documentation on how to create a Custom Notification Scheme.

Also, be sure to learn how to configure the "Issue Updated" event in the Custom Notification Scheme.  You will have the option to select a "User Custom Field Value".
