Work Item Parent and child report

I would like to create a simple report that shows work items and their children e.g.:

Work Item Parent 1 (Details)
- Work Item child 1 (Details)
- Work item child 2 (Details)
Work Item Parent 2 (Details)
- Work Item child 1 (Details)
and so on...

Is BIRT the best way to achieve this or is there a simpler way?

russellnorlund,

I want the same report as you, I have already opened work item according to that, and I have a simple, where you can put work item id as a parameter, and get all of its children. But, thing what I need is this what you mentioned.
So If you could customize report, I can send you a rptdesign which works in way I explained to you, or you can download it from this site:
https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/ReportsCentral#Links

it's called Links.rptdesign.

So, If you succeed to get this, I would like to help..

Hi Milan, thanks for your prompt reply. I will take a look at this tomorrow and let you know how I have got on.

Hi Milan, The report is a step in the right direction. However, I want something that displays all the children of a particular work item type e.g:


Epic 1
- story
- story
Epic 2
- Story
etc

so there is some work to do on the report. I will take another look when I have got some more time.

Kind Regards

Russell

Hi Russellnorlund,

I have a simple report showing the list of work item parents and its children. You can tailor it to your needs. If you want,
I can attach it to you.
