RTC Attribute customization default value doesn't work in plan
Hello,
I've defined a Default Values element in Attribute Customization in RTC 3.0.1 that set the category (Filed Against) to a default value. It works fine when I create a work item from the WorkItems menu, the default category is set. However, when I create a work item from a plan in a ranked list, the default category value is not taken into account.
Is it a known issue? Is there a workaround?
Thank you.

Accepted answer
To show a work item in a plan view, it has to have a category that matches the owner of the plan and an iteration which is selected in the plan. So regardless what default values would get set for any of these two attributes, the default value would immediately be overwritten in the first plan save.
