Summary	0010047: Adding new statuses section is missing a step
Description	If a workflow has been defined, it will not be possible to transition to the new status. The following step should be added to http://manual.mantisbt.org/manual.customizing.mantis.customizing.status.values.php: === Check existing database-defined workflow configurations Open http://<yourhost>/mantis/adm_config_report.php and look for options named "status_enum_workflow". All of those need to be updated to include transitions to and from the newly added states. This is most easily done on http://<yourhost>/mantis/manage_config_workflow_page.php. Note that the workflows can be set on a per-project basis. Make sure you have selected the relevant project when you reconfigure workflows via the web browser. Note that if you have existing workflow definitions it will not be possible to transition to your new status.
