Duplicate 1 Work Item n Times - possible ?


Christophe Lucas (86234948) | asked May 02 '11, 3:27 a.m.
Is it possible to make n copies of 1 given Work Item, i.e. 'Duplicate 1..n times selected Work Item' ?
(The Create 'New Work Items from Template' possibility is not what I am looking for here)

If No, is anyone aware of an existing Enhancement Request for this ?

From the work item, there is a Duplicate... menu option from the drop down menu off the work item id. Perhaps that is what you are looking for.

Thanks for your reply Lorelei ... However, this is not exactly what I am looking for, i.e. the Duplicate only duplicates the work item 1 time.

An alternative of course is to : create a spreadsheet with Type/Summary/Description columns, copy n times the row you want to create n times, save as .txt or .csv, and import via the 'File - Import Work Items from CSV'.
This is the functionality that I'd like to see via a new 'Duplicate Selected Work Item 1...n Times' menu on Work Item --> Enhancement 166538
