Is there a way to configure the issue fields become visible based on other filed value

Added by Jagan Goru over 12 years ago

We are in the process of migrating from bugzilla to Redmine for issue/bug tracking. One of the features in bugzilla is we can set a field visible based on other field value

Example: Status and Resolution fields

If the Status field is set to "Resovled" then Resolution field will appear/become visible. One can set some value to this field. Resolution is not relevant if status is new/in progress etc

Any help in this greatly appreciated

AFAIK, this functionality is not implemented in Redmine. I didn't see way to set such dependency.

You can define which fiekds are mandatory or read-only based on status.

Ivan is right. The functionality of this use-case seems to be what is proposed in #5686.

Yes indeed (via #703 and #3521 in 2.1.0 [Redmine 2.1.0 and 2.0.4 released]). With current implementation we're able to enforce a value for a standard-/custom field (Required) and prevent changes of the value for a standard-/custom field (Read-only), but I think that what Jagan is requesting for can't be accomplished with that alone.

First thing is that we can't hide fields yet (#12005), second is that the requested validation whether or not the field should appear based on the value of a (standard) issue field (status in this case) is not implemented in any way IIRC; it seems to be requested specifically in #5686).

Please correct me if I am wrong here.. ;)

Thanks for responses

I think this is a decent workaround may not be a complete solution. Let me try this
