There are two "completed" states: [Resolved]{.jbs-value} and [Closed]{.jbs-value}. These are accompanied by a [Resolution]{.jbs-field} and a [Fix Version/s]{.jbs-value}. Which combination of [Status]{.jbs-field}, [Resolution]{.jbs-field}, and [Fix Version/s]{.jbs-value} you should use depends on how the issue is completed.

An issue in [Resolved]{.jbs-value} state needs to go through [verification](#verifying-an-issue) to end up as [Closed]{.jbs-value}. For the JDK Project in almost all cases the bots will transition the issue to [Resolved]{.jbs-value}/[Fixed]{.jbs-value} when the changeset is integrated to the repository. If you by accident end up in a [Resolved]{.jbs-value} state for a resolution that should only be [Closed]{.jbs-value}, use the "Verify" option in the state transition menu and select verification [None]{.jbs-value}.

Would it be clearer if the instructions suggest moving the issue to the **Closed** state? Unless resolving the issue involved integrating a changeset into a Project repository.

Perhaps, the instructions should start with the case where the issue needs to go through **Resolved**, that is when a changeset is integrated, and that happens automatically.

If one has to resolve an issue manually, it should rather go to the **Closed** state directly, which applies to any resolution other than integrating a changeset. In this case, instead of saying, *“Most resolutions are used to close…”* (which I found confusing), you could state, “All other resolutions should go directly to the **Closed** state directly.” Or something similar.
