Setting the Life Cycle State of a Defect
A defect goes through different stages in its life cycle. An administrator or a user with the appropriate access control permissions can change the life cycle state of a defect. Use the following procedure to set the life cycle state of a defect. After you change the state, the remote defect associated with the defect also gets updated based on the value mapping.
