Announce: Trackers Field Values Transition Management

Item posted by Mathieu Roy <yeupou> on Mon 13 Sep 2004 01:57:52 PM UTC.

Savane now permits to allow or forbid transitions from one field value to another, on the trackers. It permits also to define specific events for specific transition, as mail notification or assignation to a specific technician.

For example, you can decide on your task tracker that item resolution cannot be changed directly from "None" to "Done", but needs to be changed first to "Works for me". And you can decide that when an item change from "None" to "Works for me", the item is reassigned to somebody else, in charge of approval, that will change the item resolution to "Done" if he's fine with how things have been done.

To configure transition, go in the Manage Field Values section of the trackers Administration -- it requires "project administrator" rights; manager rights is not enough.

This feature was implemented at CERN and is still in experimental state. Please report bugs/suggestions at https://gna.org/bugs/?group=savane , and mention as Affected Release "DEV_2009-06-05_CERN".

Have fun :)
