What is the definition of a current plan in RTC?


John Owen (462422) | asked Oct 17 '14, 11:01 a.m.
One of the options in the "Plans" dropdown is Browse Current Plans.  Can someone explain how an entry appears in the list of current plans and whether the list of plans displayed under Current Plans can be altered in some way, say be setting a configuration setting.

Thanks in advance.

 A plan will appear in the Current Plans section if it is associated with one of the following iterations:
1. The iteration identified as the current iteration.
2. An iteration that is the parent of the current iteration
3. An iteration identifed as the backlog iteration

So, for example, if in our project area, we have a backlog iteration, a Release 1 iteration with 3 Sprint iterations, and we set Sprint 2 of Release 1 as our current iteration, the following plans will show up:
1. Sprint 2 backlog plan
2. Release 1 backlog plan
3. Product backlog plan

The list of plans will change by changing the iteration identified as the current iteration.

Hope this helps
