what is the difference between prerequisite stories e dependent stories

Hello @Patricia Franca 

Lets assume you have a requirement to create catalog form and workflow for the same. You have two stories one for catalog form creation and one for workflow.

Now, first catalog form should be created and then workflow for the same should be created. so you can mark catalog form story as prerequisite for workflow story. Once you update the same, the workflow story becomes dependent of the catalog item story.

In other words, prerequisite is story to work on first than current one and then dependent is the one which should be worked after the current one.

Thanks,

Ali

Hi @Patricia Franca in short

Pre requisite story must complete first and then the dependent story must complete. 

Example: pre requisite story- create a new field on the form

Dependent story- set the newly created field to mandatory. 

So to achieve both requirements the prerequisite story must complete first because with out creating a field you cannot set a field to mandatory
