Keep work items up to date to provide full value to the team. For example, if new acceptance criteria is identified, edit the work item to ensure the assignee knows of the change. Or if you’re ready to start on an unassigned work item, assign the work item to yourself, which lets other team members know you’ve picked it up.
- From the Projects page, click the name of the work item’s project.
When you open a project, the Work Items tab is shown by default and lists all the current work items.
- Locate the work item you want to edit, then click its ID to open it. Work items open in the Changes tab.
- Edit the fields as needed.
- In the Changes tab, choose a different development environment only if no changes have been committed for the work item from the current development environment.
- Switch to the Details tab to edit the Subject, Description, or Assigned To fields.
