How can I set up an admin override of status or transitions?

Emily Jarvis

Hello, 

I've created my own workflows and I need to be able to have an Admin or even a Project Manager role be able to move the issue to any status from any status. In digging through all the community posts, the only thing I've seen is to create an "All" transition on each status that allows me to restrict that transition to certain users. However, that leaves me with 2 transitions on a number of statuses. (Meaning the transition from the previous step, plus the All transition)

Is there just a standard Admin override or permission override that I can set allowing a certain group to use any status and any transition for all workflows in my project?

Thanks!

Emily

Hello,

There is the Transition Issues permission in the project configuration scheme. You can grant this permission to users who can transition issues.

If you want to make certain users to transition to certain statuses then you can use conditions on these transitions and you can add the required users to these conditions.
