Add and Removing Work Items from Change Sets


Victor Campbell (3502618) | asked May 16 '11, 10:53 a.m.
We are using RTC 2.0.0.2. We have implemented the operation behavior to require both work items and comments (Source Code - Deliver). After delivering, a user can remove the work item from the change set. How can we secure the change set so the user cannot remove the work item?

Take a look at Team Configuration permissions, under Work Items, then option Modify, I think there should be something similar.

On my projects there are 54 configurable actions under the "Modify Work Item". I'm not really sure if any of them apply.

The only out-of-the-box constraint around change set links that I'm
aware of is the "save change set links" source-control operation
behavior. This lets you forbid the removal of change-set links from
closed work items. But I think this was introduced in either 3.0 or
3.0.1, so you probably don't have this in 2.0.0.2.

I have the similar scenario. Developers deliver changesets and then realize that a wrong workitem has been associated to it and removes it; then leave it blank without associating any workitem. Is there any way to control on who can remove workitem associations with changesets after delivery?
