Summary | 0006135: Project managers | ||||
Description | Has there ever been any discussion about designating one or more managers to a project? Then there's one or more contact users that can be used for a number of things: 1) auto notification of new bugs for the project The manager permissions group doesn't really fit the bill - one reason is that I'm a Mantis administrator therefore can't also be added as a project manager. Thoughts? | ||||

You shouldn't use an administator account for your daily usage. You should use it only to administer the system, and have another account for your standard usage. This allows you to assign your real user name to the appropriate project and with the appropriate access levels. |
|
3) bugs can be resolved by developers but can only be closed by the project manager |
|
4) some kind of daily/weekly etc digest report of bugs opened/resolved/closed etc |
|
2) so the users of a project know who to go to when they need to speak to someone "at the top" |

In reply to vboctor, that is all good and well...but as my admin ID I have months of issues/projects under my belt. When I decide to add an adminonly account, then change my original login access type to, say, manager or developer... I LOSE ALL OF MY HISTORY. Every bit of it. When I switch my original login back to administrator access... everything comes back. So what am I to do? I am running v19.1. thanks. jj |

Did you create a new account as administrator, then downgrade your original account? (Do not delete your original account). No history will be lost in this case. The visibility of the history may be affected by your new access level. |

Thanks. I gathered that it was not deleted by the way it came back when I changed my access rights...but effectively...it is gone everafter for me...which is less than useful. Is there any way to "downgrade" my access and not lose access to everything I am currently working on? |
