Assigning by default an owner to category

0
Zica Valsan (101●2●48●45) | asked Sep 12 '14, 7:56 a.m.
Hello,

we have a client who use RTC 4.0.4 and needs to have by default associated an owner to a Category so that whenever a new WI is created and in the field Files Against a certain Category is chosen then the appropriate Owner (already agreed in the team ) shows up in the field Owned By.

Is that possible ?

Thank you,
Zica

You could write a server-side participant (follow-up action) and set the OwnedBy field based on the value of the FiledAgainst field.  I don't believe there is any way to configure RTC directly to do this.

I agree with Susan.

There is no built in capability available in RTC to achieve that.
A default value provider would not work, because the category is not available when creating the work item.
A script based value provider could be a solution, however, due to the limitations of the JavaScript API you would have to hard code the users UUID into the script.
A java based value provider would be another option.
The probably best option would be to create a participant triggered by server save.

Thank you both for your suggestions!
