| Info |
|---|
When creating a new work item, the template is automatically associated to the checklist in accordance with the work item template rule just created. Bear in mind the template will be applied to the work item based on the area you have selected. Changing the area will re-apply the template to the work item. If you want the template to applied to all areas, make sure to choose “Any area" in the Area field when creating the rule. |
| Note |
|---|
Changing the checklist area will force the checklist to be re-applyed to match the area based on the template rules. All information will be lost. In addition to that, when selecting an area with no checklist associated, the existing checklist items won’t be automatically removed. |
CAVEATS
Bear in mind that the template is associated with the checklist ONLY when the create work item screen is opened.
With this caveat in mind, work items created in-line (as in the examples below) won’t have the template applied to the checklist until the work item screen is opened for editing.
