Where the incident reaches a status that permits the current owner to re-classify (eg the Lead Architect reviews a Defect and decides it's actually a Change Request), are we supposed to simply terminate the workflow for the  old  Type (Defect) and begin a fresh workflow for the  new  Type (Change Request)?  Or else does there need to be a 'transition action' to handle the re-classification?  Thanks.      </description><language>en-US</language><copyright>(C) Copyright 2006-2026 Inflectra Corporation.</copyright><managingEditor>support@inflectra.com</managingEditor><category domain="http://www.dmoz.org">/Computers/Software/Project_Management/</category><category domain="http://www.dmoz.org">/Computers/Software/Quality_Assurance/</category><generator>KronoDesk</generator><a10:contributor><a10:email>support@inflectra.com</a10:email></a10:contributor><a10:id>http://www.inflectra.com/kronodesk/forums/threads</a10:id><ttl>120</ttl><link>/Support/Forum/spiratest/issues-questions/114.aspx</link><item><guid isPermaLink="false">threadId=114</guid><author>Andy Smith (andy.smith@infoterra-global.com)</author><title>Incident Type re-classification</title><description>  Am I right to assume that an incident can be 're-classified' from one Type to another (eg "Defect" to "Issue")  at any time  using workflows?

When you change the type field, the incident will switch over to the new workflow (if the type uses a different workflow) at that point.</description><pubDate>Fri, 15 Jul 2011 01:11:28 -0400</pubDate><a10:updated>2011-07-15T01:11:28-04:00</a10:updated><link>/Support/Forum/spiratest/issues-questions/114.aspx#reply220</link></item></channel></rss>
