Summary	0007104: Auto assign on resolve
Description	There should be a way to get Mantis to reassign an issue to it’s opener. I just did the following, which seems counter intuitive. Issue assigned to me to be fixed I fix and resolve issue as fixed (issue remains assigned to me) I assign issue to person that opened it. Issue’s status is set to assigned I have to resolve issue again as fixed (issue is now assigned to opener for verification)
Tags	No tags attached.

vboctor 2006-05-17 23:56 manager ~0012863	Did you consider setting the following option to OFF: Automatically set status to ASSIGNED whenever a bug is assigned to a person. This is useful for installations where assigned status is to be used when the bug is in progress, rather than just put in a person's queue. $g_auto_set_status_to_assigned = ON;

astax 2006-05-18 03:08 reporter ~0012873	Also probably such "verification" is more correct to do using a special issue status that reported can change. This way it won't be lost who actually fixed some issue.

mcraig88 2006-08-21 12:53 reporter ~0013310	You wouldn't lose 'who fixed an issue' because the Issue History, traps when the status changes from Assigned to Resolved. vboctor: I don't think that variable is what I'm looking for. I think this is more of a workflow problem. When a bug is assigned to a developer, it needs to be fixed. When the problem is fixed and ready to be tested, the developer sets the status to Resolved. The person that filed the issue should be the one to verify that the problem is fixed to their satisfaction. Once they are satisfied, the issue is then closed.

mcraig88 2006-08-21 12:55 reporter ~0013311	Now that I think about it, how about setting up a variable like: $g_auto_assign_to_opener_on_resolve = ON; That would do it, with the requisite code of course.

ebowden 2011-12-13 15:01 reporter ~0030584	I know this is an old, unwanted issue, but I would love to see an Auto-Assign on Resolve feature. Second-best would be to add an Assign field to the Resolve form.

dregad 2011-12-13 16:33 developer ~0030588	Second-best would be to add an Assign field to the Resolve form As I just wrote in 0006418, such a field does exist in 1.2.x

ebowden 2011-12-13 16:51 reporter ~0030589	Great. I'll get on my guys to update. We're currently running 1.2.0rc1 and it's not there.

dregad 2011-12-13 18:10 developer ~0030591	Yep, this was fixed in 1.2.0 (see 0003391)
