Calculated value or query from parent?
I have work items arranged into a hierarchy using parent/child links. I would like to display information from the parent work item in the editor for the child. For example, consider two work items:
Type: ParentWI I would like to have the editor for ChildWI display the due date from the parent work item. I looked at implementing the above using "Script Based Calculated Values" but it appears that there is no easy way to access the children of a work item from within the script. Can this be done in a calculated value script? Is there another alternative? Suggestions? Similarly, I would like to have the results of a query for all ChildWIs display the parent's due date in the results. If I can get the calculated value working then this becomes easy. If not, is there another way to get the parent's due date to be displayed in a query's results? - Rich |
