Can I update a field value on a parent work item and all of it's children without doing each one individually?
Accepted answer
You can do this with the bulk-update feature.
1. Run a query with the condition "Parent > Id is < parent WI Id >" and display the "Planned For" column.
2. Select all the work items in the result set (these are the child work items).
3. Click the "Modify Multiple Work Items" and change the "Planned For" value.
4. Change the "Planned For" value for the parent work item separately.
