Can Issues be added on a Task Level in a Project Template?

We leverage Issues to add specific information that may apply to our deliverables per our retention policy (like expiration dates). These can be missed on the Project level, and I was wondering if we could use the Complete - Pending Issues status as a flag that there is an extra action on the corresponding task. Since these are added for specific requests, we are looking to add them to a Project Template so they populate automatically. Thanks!

I think you can't add issues to a template (either on the project or on the task level). I guess because the idea is that issues capture unplanned work. (Happy to be challenged, though, if someone knows a way.)

If you insist on having issues added automatically to your projects, maybe explore options such as custom form data added to the template tasks, which triggers a Fusion scenario upon project creation that adds the issue to the project task.

Thanks for your response! This was my initial thought, but I was curious if there was an opportunity to do it without a Fusion Scenario. Our instance leverages Issues (with custom forms) for procurement as our main usage, the unplanned nature isn't inherent.
