and drag it to the Planned Items page. Drag
it to a user or category to assign it. Drag it to a work item to make
it a child of the work item.
- Modify an existing work item so that its category and planned
iteration match the criteria for the plan.
- Create a new work item. Right-click a group folder
or a work item and click Add Work Item and
select a work item type.

group folder or work item and click ,
select a work item type, and click OK. You
can then press Ctrl+Enter to add a work item
of that type to the planned items. If you set the default type to User
