User cannot edit issue although he has the required permissons

Question

I have a user who has the Charm Administrators role.

Edit permissions are set as:

Edit Issues

Ability to edit issues.

Project role
Charm Administrators
TM Administrators
Charm Users
TM Users

Project role of the user is Charm Administrator.

Using the permission helper I see:

Permission: edit Issues

Permission name: Edit Issues
User: 34028342304
Project: Project name
Permission scheme: TCM common Permission Scheme
Issue:XXXXX
Status: USERNAME  has the 'Edit Issues' permission

But still he cannot edit the issue.

Also, please take a look at the Properties of the status in the workflow. It might be that the status does not allow editing.

Hi @Rick Jansen , Do you have a screenshot of the issue and the related workflow? Regards, Marco

Can the user edit other issues in the project?
No

Can the issue in question be edit by other users
No

Has a property been set in the workflow on the relevant status?

Hmmm. Problem might lie there:

Issue is an inittiative.

Workflow                                            Issue Types                                Actions
Jira Workflow (jira)(View as text)           Initiative
                                                          Objective

But no actions is set for initiative. Could that be the reason?
