Is there a way to change the default for what type of work item is created with new work item? I am using M2 and the work item type "defect" is selected by default and I would like it to be "task". Looking in the process specification for the project, I did not see a place where this is defined nor did I find anything in Work Item preferences.

Thanks,

Jessica

Patrick provides a solution by way of modifying the configuration source in his answer to a similar post here : https://jazz.net/forum/questions/25223/how-to-set-a-default-work-item-type-for-web-ui

No, it's currently not possible, but would be a nice enhancement. I've filed "31219: Introduce default work item type" to track this.

Actually, I found that the default type remains to be Defect, even after you delete Defect as a workitem type from the process configuration.
