It's possible to do "return all workitems where owner = 'Bob' and approver = 'Bob'.
It's not possible to do "return all workitems where owner = approver".
If the latter use case is the desired one, I suggest to create a custom report that returns such workitems.
Yup, was looking for the latter case. Is there anyway to get a resulting column from a query with the name of the approver listed? I.e. query on all work items for any owner but have RTC return the owner for each work item.
Dashboards and work items are no longer publicly available, so some links may be invalid. We now provide similar information through other means.
