⁠6.8.5. Configuration

This set of pages control the configuration of the MantisBT system. Note that the configuration items displayed may be on a project by project basis.
These pages serve two purposes. First, they will display the settings for the particular aspects of the system. If authorized, they will allow a user to change the parameters. They also have settings for what access level is required to change these settings ON A PROJECT basis. In general, this should be left alone, but administrators may want to delegate some of these settings to managers.

⁠6.8.5.1. Workflow Thresholds

This page covers the adjustment of the settings for many of the workflow related parameters. For most of these, the fields are self explanatory and relate to a similarly named setting in the configuration file. At the right of each row is a selector that allows the administrator to lower the access level required to change the particular parameter.
The values changeable on this page are:
