How to change the default folders present in iteration plans

Hi,

By default an iteration plan shows "Top Items" and "Defects & Enhancements" folders and I can add, remove and structure other folders within an iteration plan.

If I always want particular folders in an iteration plan - is there a way to get them to be there by default when I create new iteration plans? So, can I configure the default folder structure for iteration plans?

Cheers,

Tim

It's not possible to define a folder template but when duplicating a
plan, you can also duplicate it's folder structure.

Thanks Johannes,

I've had a look at that - is there a way to duplicate an iteration plan and have it associated with a new iteration?

I'm not quite sure I see when you would ever want to duplicate an iteration plan - it ends up associated with the same iteration, has the same work items, etc. It seems all you can do is change the name? Am I missing something?

It should definitely be possible to change the iteration, along with the
name, team area, and project area. When you select duplicate in the
context menu of a plan, a wizard will open. It should allow you to
browse iterations.

Hmmm - yeah - that works for me now. Maybe I was just confused by those fields being greyed out when I bring up the wizard. I can still click the browse button even though those fields are greyed out and change them as you describe.

Cheers,

Tim
