788467 - Group setting with the Group Query

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Bugzilla :: Query/Bug List, defect)

Description

[shirphy]

User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.2; Trident/4.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729)

Steps to reproduce:

I want to query all bugs whose assignees are belongs to a group, and create a group to hold all member. I set the query in Advanced Query with the following
[Assignee] [is equal to] [%group.APPS%]



Actual results:

I got the following error :
The group you specified, APPS, is not valid here.

But if I modify the APPS group with the setting:
Groups That Are a Member of This Group
("Users in X are automatically in APPS")
admin
(Means admin users are automatically in APPS)

Then the Query can run and get the result list.
It seems any group must contain admin group?

Since admin group is also in the APPS group, there will be a lot of 
Bugs not in the group APPS but in the admin group. 
So I have to add another additional query limit:
[Assignee] [is not equal to] [admin]
Then the result is what I want. 

So my question is if can I just use a query limit ([Assignee] [is equal to] [%group.APPS%])to get the result?

Thank you very much.


Expected results:

I hope to get the correct result list.

I told you in bug 788098 that it's not the right place to ask for help. There is a support mailing-list for such questions.
