Autofill of a custom field with calculated value

Hello,
For internal use, I have to define a new field (Criticity) so that the values of priority field will be automatically evaluated and auto filled depending on the severity value and the Criticity added as custom

We do not want to manually fill this field. How can mantis do that for me ??? I was wandering if using a custom field + function customization was the solution. How can I do that ?

Thx for all.

Sincerely,

I would consider creating a small plugin for that.

Hi Nabil, check out the developers guide within your mantis installation, this will give you an indication.
If you cannot do it yourself, you need to make a precise description what you actually need and seek some support on the forum.
