Not sure if this is a dup or related to issue 7106. When I select the "Accept this issue, change status to STARTED" radio button, and click Commit, the issue is not assigned to me - STATUS is changed OK, but the issue remains assigned to whomever it was previously (in this case the default owner of the component, issues@www). To then assign it to myself I need to go back, click "reassign to" and manually fill in my login. Maybe I'm misunderstanding normal usage, but "accept" sounds to me like I personally am taking on this issue, which implies to me that I am assigning it to myself ? I can't find anything about this in the IZ help docs. Pls consider this as a RFE or "behavioural request" for Scarab.
Jack - Scarab does have more advanced capabilities such that a user can assign the issue as well as alter the status in one action. In issuezilla, when you select 'accept' issue, the system alters the status from new to started. That is all. It was designed so when an issue was assigned to someone, it was given a status of 'new'. If the assigned user wanted to acknowledge reciept and begin work on the issue, they would choose 'accept issue' and commit. Otherwise they would comment and assign to someone else. Since scarab has the functionality you are requesting, can we consider this issue closed?
Certainly; thanks for info. Looking forward to Scarab :-)
