Summary0003891: Can't delegate some ADMIN tasks to MANAGER
Description

Even if it was enabled in config_inc, role MANAGER haven't access to

  • User Management
  • Custom Field Management (creating)
    Admin's menu for this tasks missing
Steps To Reproduce

grep MANAGER config_inc.php
$g_assign_sponsored_bugs_threshold = MANAGER;
$g_manage_project_threshold = MANAGER;
$g_manage_news_threshold = MANAGER;
$g_create_project_threshold = MANAGER;
$g_private_project_threshold = MANAGER;
$g_project_user_threshold = MANAGER;
$g_manage_user_threshold = MANAGER;
$g_stored_query_create_shared_threshold = MANAGER;
$g_update_readonly_bug_threshold = MANAGER;
$g_manage_custom_fields_threshold = MANAGER;
$g_custom_field_link_threshold = MANAGER;
Admin level rights are only
grep ADMIN config_inc.php
$g_show_user_email_threshold = ADMINISTRATOR;
$g_delete_project_threshold = ADMINISTRATOR;

Additional Information

Probably not a bug, but "by design", but this way admin can't delegate all non-destructive actions to trusted manager
As usual, all can be viewed on my demo-site http://bts.e-city.net.ru/demo/ after login manager/manager

TagsNo tags attached.

As I can see, menu created for admin/manager different ways
Administrator have additional menu, which can be reached by manager
Maybe better sulution is build menu for both roles, but enable only not-restricted by local policy links for manager?
Just my 2penny

Regarding custom-field-management,

I have issued this behaviour in 0003774, there is also a patch attached. Maybe this will solve your problems ...

I believe issue described here has been solved in newer versions of mantis, although the original issue description isn't 100% clear
