Hi,

Scheduling happens like this:

* Get all work item assigned to a person in an iteration
* Sort them by their sequence value (this is *not* the rank)
* If the sequence value isn't set or equal use the rank
* Sum up the effective estimates of all n work items to figure out the start date of work item n+1

For a formal project it also takes scheduling constraints and dependencies into account.

The magic sequence value is set by using the drag and drop reordering in the MyWork view. See https://jazz.net/library/article/593#myWork for reference

Note: I am not sure what is referred to as scheduled start & end dates here.

Thanks,
