Description

« Hide

It would be nice to be able to restrict the ability of users to set the fix version since this directly impacts the roadmap, etc. For our project (Apache MyFaces) there are two level of users: regular users and developer. The developers are the only ones who can assign an issue to an individual, and ideally, they would be the only ones who can assign the verison to be fixed.

Its not really appropriate for the bug reporter to decide when the issue is fixed. I noticed the field is missing from this screen as I type so perhaps this is something that is already available?

See the documentation:
"Resolve Issue: Permission to resolve and reopen issues. This also includes the ability to set the FixFor version for issues". Okaly-Dokaly?

Thanks for the info. I still think there needs to be a way to separate fix for version from everything else. If a user reports an issue and wants to later withdraw it (by resolving WORKS FOR ME or WON'T FIX) they cannot do this without the resolve issue permission. Also, we would like users to be able to reopen an issue that's closed so that they can appeal the decision to not fix it or to say the issue is still there after a developer has claimed to fix it.

Other users have gotten around it by doing this. I think the only solution is to not provide Resolve and Reopen directly, but another action which alerts a user with that permission to do something, like on their support site "Add Comments for Atlassian".
