Using Defect Tracking Software
Eventum Defect Tracking System [1] is a user-friendly and flexible issue tracking system that can be used by a support department to track incoming technical support requests, or by a software development team to quickly organize tasks and bugs. The Eventum projects can be managed using:

Details
Please add the following statuses for our project (Bugzilla). The already available statuses may be removed for our project.
| Statuses (Open Context) | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rank | Abbr | Title | Description | Color |
| 11 | UNC | UNCONFIRMED | This bug has recently been added to the database. Nobody has validated that this bug is true. Users who have the "canconfirm" permission set may confirm this bug, changing its state to NEW. Or, it may be directly resolved and marked RESOLVED. | #CCFFFF |
| 12 | NEW | NEW | This bug has recently been added to the assignee's list of bugs and must be processed. Bugs in this state may be accepted, and become ASSIGNED, passed on to someone else, and remain NEW, or resolved and marked RESOLVED. | #CCFFFF |
| 13 | ASS | ASSIGNED | This bug is not yet resolved, but is assigned to the proper person. From here bugs can be given to another person and become NEW, or resolved and become RESOLVED. | #99CC66 |
| 14 | REO | REOPENED | This bug was once resolved, but the resolution was deemed incorrect. For example, a WORKSFORME bug is REOPENED when more information shows up and the bug is now reproducible. From here bugs are either marked ASSIGNED or RESOLVED. | #6699CC |
| Statuses (Closed Bugs) | ||||
| Rank | Abbr | Title | Description | Color |
| 15 | RES | RESOLVED | A resolution has been taken, and it is awaiting verification by QA. From here bugs are either re-opened and become REOPENED, are marked VERIFIED, or are closed | #FFCC99 |
| 16 | VER | VERIFIED | QA has looked at the bug and the resolution and agrees that the appropriate resolution has been taken. Bugs remain in this state until the product they were reported against actually ships, at which point they become CLOSED. | #CCCCCC |
| 17 | CLO | CLOSED | The bug is considered dead, the resolution is correct. Any zombie bugs who choose to walk the earth again must do so by becoming REOPENED. There is some discussion if this should be a closed status or closed context. | #FFFFFF |
| Resolved Statuses (Closed Context) | ||||
| Rank | Abbr | Title | Description | Color |
| 18 | FIX | FIXED | A fix for this bug is checked into the tree and tested. | #CCFFFF |
| 19 | INV | INVALID | The problem described is not a bug. | #99CC66 |
| 20 | WNT | WONTFIX | The problem described is a bug which will never be fixed. | #6699CC |
| 21 | DUP | DUPLICATE | The problem is a duplicate of an existing bug. Marking a bug duplicate requires the bug# of the duplicating bug and will at least put that bug number in the description field. | #FFCC99 |
| 22 | WOR | WORKSFORME | All attempts at reproducing this bug were futile, and reading the code produces no clues as to why the described behavior would occur. If more information appears later, the bug can be reopened. | #CCCCCC |
| 23 | MOV | MOVED | The problem was specific to a related product whose bugs are tracked in another bug database. The bug has been moved to that database. | #FFFFFF |
