One thing that a lot of new users of RTC run into is an understanding of what gets impacted when you make process changes.  Existing work items have been created with a different process, and these existing work items will follow the old process.  New work items will follow the new process.  So when you test your process changes, make sure that you test them out on NEW work items, and not existing work items.

Unless a Synchronize Attributes is done on the old workitems, and then they are upgraded to the process config at that time.

we've done this now on our systems to upgrade all existing defects to the new process and data model.

its possible that the enum is created with a default value and the save proceeds taking this default value

thanks Dinesh

Please accept the answer, if that solved your problem. That way we know it is closed and answered.

for an enum, you MUST have a default AND an Unassigned choice..
we use 'Unassigned' as the default AND unselected value when we want to force users to change it
