Is it possible to only give some users the ability to set the issue priority?

Added by John B over 14 years ago

Hi there.

I'm running Redmine and I'm loving it. I've got a couple of public projects set up and everything is working fine, but it annoys me somewhat that reporters are able to set the issue priority, as they seem to overdramatize...

Is it possible to only give selected user roles the ability to set the priority of an issue? My issue workflow is set up so that an issue has the status 'Proposed' when first created, the project manager is then supposed to set the issue status to 'Accepted' with the actual issue priority.

The same goes for setting the fields 'Assigned to', 'Target version', 'Start', 'Due Date', 'Estimated time' and '% Done'.

If it's not possible to do so at the moment, I hope it'll be implemented, because in my case a random user should not be allowed to delegate and manage issues on a project management level.

Yes, i have the same issue on this. so i modified code for support basic business logic below
1. Hide 'Assigned to', 'Target version', 'Start', 'Due Date', 'Estimated time', '% Done', 'issue priority' and 'category'.
2. They is in "edit issues" permission.

Hi minkbear.

That's great, seems to be an alright solution to my problem. Would it be possible for you to elaborate on what modifications you made and where you made them?

As a side-note: an overhaul of the permissions system is planned I think for version version:1.1, which is planned to allow for more fine-grained permission setups, in particular stuff like default fields for issues.
