How can Customers to my service desk (not Jira users) change status of issues

Question

Hello

In my service desk portal, how can customers change status on issues?

I want customers to be able to change status to "resolved" or "waiting for support" on their own issues.

According to print screen below, customers can only add comment and attachment, not change status.

I have tried changing the permission settings for my service desk project (see image below), but without any luck.

Thanks for your help.

Best regards,

Customers are not supposed to be changing status - the point of Service Desk is that they have a very simple and minimal interface for commenting and viewing progress.

If you want them to have more access, you need to make them into JIRA users.
