Adding work items to an iteration plan

You can add existing work items to an iteration plan or create new work items in the plan.
This topic assumes that you have an iteration plan for an associated team area and iteration.
  1. To open an iteration plan, double-click it in the Team Artifacts view.
  2. Click the Planned Items tab.
  3. To add work items to a plan:
    • Select an entry in the Work Items view 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 iteration 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.
  4. To set a default type for new work items, right-click a group folder or work item and click Add Work Item > Set Default, 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 Selected, the type menu opens when you press Ctrl+Enter.
