Restricting Options in Filed Against based on Work Item Type


Vaibhav S (106247) | asked Jan 30 '19, 11:42 p.m.

 Hi,


Can we restrict the options in "Filed Against" Drop Down Depending on the Type of Work Item being created. 

E.g. Only 2 options should be visible in Filed Against Drop Down while creating an Issue type WI, while the same 2 options should not be visible while creating a Defect but some other option should be visible.

Is there any way to do it. Please let me know.

Thanks
Vaibhav

I have submitted an RFE to allow Filed Against (and Planned For) to be targets of a Value Set.

Better put into (at least also) into the RFE community: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=changeRequestFAQ

 As far as I can tell, no, you can't. It might be possible to create a work item save advisor (Java Server Plugin) that restricts saving the work item. See https://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2014/05/26/only-owner-can-close-workitem-advisor/ for an advisor example.

You are aware that there is a capability to only show some categories to users that are not member of the team the categories are for?
