How to change the default folders present in iteration plans

0
Tim Bartley (23●7●9) | asked Dec 04 '08, 1:35 a.m.
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?

Cheers,

Tim

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
