Changing / adding default values in Work Item field like "Planned For", "Found In" etc?
Accepted answer
I would suggest reading the slides attached to https://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2016/07/15/rtc-process-customization-what-you-can-and-cannot-do/ to get started.
A default value does not sow up in drop down boxes - that is just a ui value picker. A default value is the value an attribute has when the work item is initially created. Attribute customization allows them: https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/AttributeCustomization also see
But since when a work item is created, there is no useful information, default values almost never make any sense, except maybe the ones you define in a enumeration as the global default (which could and more often than not is unassigned).
It is possible to define custom value sets (again https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/AttributeCustomization or the process enactment workshop ). Note that the JavaScript API is very limited and can not really do anything with complex attributes such as filed against and you would need the Java API to really do anything useful (see https://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2016/07/15/rtc-process-customization-what-you-can-and-cannot-do/ ).

Cannot save the work item template on the server. Value "Scrum/Team" cannot be assigned to attribute "ChangeRequest:filedAgainst"
In this example, Scrum/Team is the name of the team area that is stored in the Filed Against attribute in the work item template.
When you import a template into a new project area, you can assign values to the attributes that are defined as template variables. For all other attributes, the field values in the work items that you used to create the template are used in the new work items.
