Is there anyway to get a list of cases that are assigned to me, in Mantis?
Try using the Extended Filter functioanllity and set it to "assigned to" --> your login.
There are 2 options for seeing the testcases assigned to you
Option 1
Log in
Click on "Main" link from the top navigation
Find for "Open and assigned to me" label. This label has the count of tickets assigned to you.
The count/number is linked.
Option 2
Log in
Click on "View issues" link from the top navigation
Use filter.
Enter your user name in "Assigned to" filter and select "Status" of the tickets to be looked for.

I'm trying to lock/deny the option to open a new work item with specific iterations.
I tried to do it with a custom field with same value of iteration id and
<PROHIBITEDVALUES> rule.
Then I understood that its not possible because iteration-id field load only after I press the "save" button and its too late.
There any other ideas how to do it?
There is not any build-in option to hide older/specific iterations in the Work Item field.
However, you can set the security for "Edit work items in this node" to deny and they will not be able to save work items with the area or iteration selected.
Besides you could also hide the iteration node(s):
Open Project settings>Project configuration
Select the Iteration Tab
Select the iteration that you want to hide
Click on Security > Add a "Deny View" permissions for the users that
you want to hide the nodes from.
The user will not able to see the iteration in the sprint.
update:
There are a few topics that I have found while searching for an answer to this, but nothing that specifically helps my situation. Here's what I need to do and some background.
Web application has a field called "Requested by" that automatically inputs the logged in users name from Active Directory. This cannot be edited.
User selects a store location from the first list, this location is where the requested user will be setup for.
Second list needs to then populate with a list of potential approvers by first seeing which store was selected, then grabbing a list of names from an Active Directory group called "Store Managers"
Example
Bob Jones is requesting a new logon for Sally Smith who will work at Store 1.
Bob selects "Store 1" from the first dropdown list
List 2 populates a list of approvers who are in "Store 1" group AND "Store Managers" group.
Can someone please tell me where to start on this! Any help is very much appreciated!!
Within the function that is called whenever the first drop-down menu changed, ie. a new value has been selected (such as selecting a store), you can have a simple if-else structure that, depending on the newly selected drop-down menu item, checks for any valid values within your Active Directory.
That is as specific as I can be, seeing as you haven't posted any code along with your question.
I can't find a way to create this kind of custom field in Jira..
What is the custom field type for this kind of custom field?
I have tried with Label types, Select List(multiple choices)
type custom fields, but no result..
Having looked at their documentation and the applicable comments, it is indeed a Label field-type, as one would naturally assume.
The drop-down next to the labels is for the list of available or suggested labels.

if you are using jira datacenter or jira server then
you must have admin access
go to the setting cog icon at the left side of screen .
go to the issues then click custom field in the left hand side

Fellow TFS users and/or junkies,
We are using TFS 2013. When I add required for Description HTML (Microsoft.VSTS.Common.DescriptionHTML), the default value still shows up as "As a I want so that ", THUS it doesn't require the user to fill anything in and it doesn't show up yellow. Sure, I could change the field, but we already have many things linked to Description HTML and can't risk changing the fields (reports and such are already setup). How would I change this so either:
A. It is empty and will show up required OR
B. It requires the user to change the value
Things I tried:
Setting the value to empty. Won't allow me to have both empty AND required.
Setting Default Value to empty. Won't allow me to that either.
Setting Prohibited Values to the default text it has. Not allowed for the field.
Applying a WhenNotChanged rule for the field and setting it to required. It already has a value so it doesn't matter if it's required or not.
I've just looked into a similar tfs machine.
It's just a defined "Default" rule but not in the "Fields" tab but in workflow tab.
In my case, it was in the initial transition rule.
To be specific:
Like you can guess, using Power Tools;
open the work item
go to the "Workflow" tab.
In the designer, double click the (most possibly) first transition element to view its settings
In the window opened, go to the "Fields" tab
If you see "Description" field there, double click it
Remove the "Default" rule
Now, you don't have a default text. You can set it "Required" and it'll be ok.
Close all, go to Fields tab of work item and set a required rule in a way as you expected initially.
I am trying to follow this article to do the same for adding a new State to a particular project's Bug work item. By default I can only see . I wanted to add a new state, "On Hold"
But I perhaps followed it wrong and ended up getting
The error says "Open Transition Active~On Hold to add at least one Reason." How do I open that transition and where do I add one reason. What is the reason it is talking about? I only want to add a new state.
Thanks for your time...
Double click the Active~On Hold Transition , select the Reasons tab and type in at least one reason.
After saving the .wit file, you must click Refresh from the Team Explorer menu in order to see changes.
In the work item editor, double click on the Transition between your Active and On hold states. Under 'Transition Detail' you should see 'From: Active' and 'To: On Hold'. Change 'From: Active' to blank so it should show 'From: '. Now save the editors, click 'refresh' from the Team Explorer menu and any new bugs you create will have 'On Hold' as an option for the state.
