If one the following requirements matches with yours, then read all the rest !

  • Your Analysts have to be assignable to an issue only during the Analysis phasis,
  • Your Developper team can log work only in Developement and Test phasis,

  • ... and also


In more generic term ... : Be able to define a permission depending on any Workflow Step !

To allows such settings, Minyaa allows you to manage the permission under 2 different axes :
  • Who is granted at this Step : feature provided by using a new technical Customfield based on User Picker : Users By Workflow Step.
  • Is an operation allowed : feature provided by using any condition class. An extension of WorkflowManager provided a way to evaluate a boolean meta-attribute (true, false or Condition Class Name)

Using this capacity, some permission are evaluated ...
