Is there a way to add a button to an Issue to update a custom field?

Coleen Astalos

I would like to add a "Reviewed" button to the view issue screen so that my CM person who runs the Review Board can click a single button to indicate a particular issue has been reviewed.  The resulting action when the button is clicked is that a custom date field is updated with the current date.  

This is to simplify the multi-click process of having to:

• select the custom date field to edit 
• select the date picker
• select the current date
• select the checkbox to save the entry.

The goal is to reduce the clicks necessary during the meeting from 4 clicks down to 1 clicks.  Ideally this button would be visible/usable only to users in a specific group.   But that is not as important as reducing the clicks needed during the meeting.

@Coleen Astalos, can you please provide a bit of additional information? How does the current review process work? When performing these reviews, are the tickets staying in the same status?

Do you have any add ons installed in your system/are you willing to purchase on? I know of 2 which could reduce the number of clicks from 4 -> 2.

 

Thanks!
