Tags:

I'm new to Visual Studio Online and trying to create custom work item types and custom workflow. I can't seem to find any documentation or anywhere in the UI that allows you to defined these items. Anyone know how this can be done.

How do you add a custom field to a work item in TFS?

To add a custom field, add field rules, or change the label of a field on a work item form, you modify the work item type (WIT) or types that use the field. Follow the customization sequence that matches your process model. To change a field attribute or rename a field, use the witadmin command line tool.

How do I add a work item in Visual Studio?

Open Visual Studio 2019, Team Explorer, and then choose Work Items. If you don't see the Work Items option, you need to connect to a project and not just a repository. From the Connect to a Project dialog. Use CTRL-Shift to select your options and then choose Connect.

As of January 2016: Process Customisation is supported in VSTS, details can be found in this blog post.


Before January 2016:

It can't be done at the moment, however, there are internal Microsoft teams using customised process templates on Visual Studio Online.

Expect this to change later this year (2015) - keep an eye on Brian Harry's blog.

The best you can get at the moment is using Tags and customise the Kanban boards.

If you really want this feature, vote on the Visual Studio User Voice request for it.
