How can I change the version number for an issue which has already assigned a version number?

[Dijesh Mathew]

Hello,

I have assigned an issue to a version number 1.0.0.0. How can I change the version number of that issue to 2.0.0.0. The only way I can see is to delete the issue, recreate the same issue and assign the recreated same issue to 2.0.0.0.

Is there any better way to assign an existing issue with version number to newly created version number.

Thanks in advance..

Yes Nic, if was not added to the screen. Once added, in the edit screen I am able to change the version number. 

Thanks!

Edit the issue.

It may be that your edit screen is missing the version field.  It might be hidden by your preferences (check the cog at the top right), but if it's not just hidden, you'll need an admin to add it to the screen.
