Delete issues

User without Delete Issues permission cannot remove issues and objects. The bin icon will be unavailable.

Edit issues

Disabled Edit Issues permission blocks inline edits in fields and Test Case steps.

Link issues

RTM app is based on relations between features. With linking permission particular group will be also able to create Test Plan Execution and Defects. Linking permission allows to add Test Cases to Test Plan, cover Requirement by Test Case and so on.
