#492 Changing reporter - new functionality request

[Mateusz Dobrowolny]

Hi,

From time to time there is a need to change reporter of a bug.
For example:
1. A person left job, and we want to make a new owner of a bug.
2. A person creates bugs for someone else

Generally, if a bug reporter let's say left a copany, leaving his/her info in a bug may be misleading.

Hence, I would like to request new feature:
Ability to change the reporter of a bug.
Of course this should be connected with a privileges system, and granted by default only to the administrator.

Currently I use SQL queries to change it directly in the database.
update bugs set bg_reported_user = X where bg_id = Y

Thank you in advance!

Best Regards

Did you know you can do it via mass edit, in search.aspx?

Yep, mass edit works great with reporter.

I think you can close this request.

Kind Regards
