I am experimenting with various features of SN Agile features. Operating in a Yokohama PDI with Agile plugins installed.
I created a story and saved it.
After reloading this rm_story record, I configured the form to show related list Requirements->Agile Story. The related list became visible. Clicking "New" the requirement form appeared. I filled in various fields including a short description (SD) on this requirement record and submitted the form. At this point I was returned to the story. This was all expected.
On examination of the rm_story record, however, I discovered that the story SD was overwritten by the SD provided by the requirement. I added another requirement and the same thing happened. Is the underlying assumption that each story will only have one requirement. You would not really need a related list in that case.
I have discovered there is a business rule on the task table that does synch the SDs for these two records [Sync short description to agile story]. To me, this seems unnecessary and undesired, so I must have an incorrect understanding of usage. Can anyone explain the logic of overwriting the SD in the related story with SDs provided for a related requirement?
Thanks in advance
