Description

On the trackers properties we have 2 areas to control tracker status display and usage.

"Display" shows 2 preferences (checkboxes on/off):

  • Show status
  • Show status to tracker administrator only


"Status" (visible even if status is disable) shows options:

  • New item status (o,p,c - dropdown)
  • Modified item status (no change, o,p,c - dropdown)
  • Default status displayed in list mode (o,p,c - Multiselect)


But there are inconsistencies !
For example;
- Both of the Display can be disable => Status is not used
- New item status can be set to Pending
- Default status displayed in list mode can be set to Open

As result, if you create an item it won't be displayed !
New item created is Pending and List shows Open item is applied. ??‍♂️

If Status is disable, it should be really disabled and nothing should interfere. (the sub options should be hidden, grayed, disabled)

If would make sens to regroup things under the same area.

  • Add the options as child of the feature on/off switch
  • Regroup the feature and option under Status
