My Work view and multiple timelines

JAZZ DEVELOPER
Hello. Is this correct? The My Works view only shows the items of the project timeline in the Current Work section, but not the other timelines?

We have other parallel timelines that are marked as current and have current dates assigned to them, but my items of these iterations only appear in the Future Work section.

How do I plan my work across all the different timelines to which I have to deliver work?

In addition, I would actually like to do this even across projects as I have work items in several projects, how can I plan my work in this scenario without switch the My Work view from project to project?

Thanks for any tips,
Peter.

We need this information too. Currently we are having to tell our developers to go look at the Plan view to figure out their work. The 'My Work view' and quiery is useless as it gives them their work for the entire release (6 months for a Formal Project process, non-Agile) and for many members that is 100 work items. The query does not show an ordering of start/end dates because that is only stored in the Plan and not on the work items.


We really would rather have the developers just run a my work item query to get their ordered work with start/end dates, but we don't want to go in and enter them to the work items statically, because then one change creates a ton of work to update 100+ other work items. We need the dynamic scheduling of the plan, but we need a way to run queries against that data and it needs to be built into RTC.

I do have a similar question. I have a project with project members working on work items related to different timelines. At the end of each week depending on the work item priority across the different timelines each team member works more or less on a given timeline. First of all I can't create any team area because a team area is related to a timeline. Then it looks like using work item queries is the only way to manage the work of a team member across timelines. It seems to me that it is very difficult to plan and to manage parallel developments with RTC. I would be very interested to have information on this topic.

The question is probably somewhere related to this story :

and also this one :
