Further information

Projects in are supported by three pillars:

Workflow

The workflow determines, through which statuses an issue has to go. This defines the basic course of a project's issues.

Table structure

The table structure defines the structure of issues. I.e. it determines, which fields of the issues can/must be filled out, how these fields are displayed and which data types they contain.

Permissions

The permissions let you determine the privileges of users within the project. I.e. you can determine if a user is allowed to create new issues, copy issues or delete issues; if the user can use the chart function; which issues are visible for a user and issues of which status a user is allowed to edit.
