how to assign unassigned value for the Planned for attribute when the work item is rejected

 Hi All,

The following is my requirement

I want the Planned For attribute should be set to Unassigned when a work item is rejected.

Can we implement this in process template or do we need to have a follow-up action for this?

Thanks
Surender

Surender,

as this is a dynamic thing a followup action would be my choice. You might be able to do this with JavaScript as well, but I am not sure.

Thanks for the Quick reply Ralph,


Even I thought of going for the Follow-up action but I read in some blog that Follow up actions will not work for web UI.

Can you please clear me on this thing.

Thanks

Surender, the save work item operation runs on the server, so it would run in the web UI. The caveat is, that it needs to be configured and it is so easy to mess up the configuration e.g. by configuring operational behavior for another role.

Another option would be an advisor that prevents saving if the value is not unassigned. Same caveat however.

Another opetion would be to use a small Plain Java Client tool, that queries for the work items that violate the rule and then sets the value accordingly. This could be run over night e.g. in a build. Caveat is the change does not happen immediately.

I think these are your options.
