Two-Man Rule
If you defined allowed values for a member field in different states, the system does not intiate a flow of responsibility based on a status change. Project members can be assigned to multiple roles. For example, a user may be responsible for fixing a bug and also approving the fix.
The Two-Man Rule allows the following:
Only users in the required role can be selected as field values, not roles.
Selected users may not have been assigned to the work item in the previous status
Since this role requires a change of the field value, all State Transitions that affect the status clear the previous field value and force the user to select a new value.
