Synchronizing attributes between related work items

Hi,

Is possible to synchronize work items which are in some relationship?
For example, if work item parent and its child have some same wi attributes, if I change some value on parent wi attribute, same attribute at his wi child should use same value as his parent.

Regards,

Hi, My understanding is no, not automatically as a part of RTC, but there is a way around it that we often use.

If you create a query that lists the relevant items in the Work Item list in the Eclipse client, Ensure that the column for the attribute is showing. Select all the work items that you want to change, right click on the specific column and then select the new attribute. Not sure how this works for free text fields, but certainly works for all of the standard RTC.

Just checked and it also works for fields that we have added that are of an enumerated type.

Hope that helps.
