common categories / cross teamarea categories
Is there a way to have a couple of categories linked to more than one team area (WITHOUT loosing the ability to link a workitem to a certain team)?
Let's say we have teamA working on cobol-sources, teamB working on java-sources and teamC working on planning.
We would like to have frontend/backend categories of workitems for all teams (without the need of creating each of those categories three times).

One answer
Categories span a tree. A category can always only map to one process area. So my naive answer is no. You have the following choices:
root/frontend/cobol
root/frontend/java
root/frontend/planning
root/backend/cobol
root/backend/java
root/backend/planning
or
root/cobol/frontend
root/cobol/backend
root/java/frontend
root/java/backend
root/planning/frontend
root/planning/backend
for all I can tell.
root/frontend/cobol
root/frontend/java
root/frontend/planning
root/backend/cobol
root/backend/java
root/backend/planning
or
root/cobol/frontend
root/cobol/backend
root/java/frontend
root/java/backend
root/planning/frontend
root/planning/backend
for all I can tell.
