While using the Triage board to add tasks other than stories to the backlog, some fields are not populating

Hello Developers,

When using the Triage board to add tasks other than stories to the backlog, some of the fields do not map when you click on Add to Backlog. I did like to ensure we add fields like Description, Configuration Item, GL Account, and attachments come over from the original task to the Story that is created.

Thanks & Regards,

Ruchi

Hi Ruchi,

As per the Agile_Multi_Task_AjaxProcessor script include, the only fields that are populated in the story from the respective task OOTB are 

  • Short description
  • Backlog definition
  • Original task

All other fields will need to be handled separately via your own logic. An easy way to do this might be to create a new flow that executes on insert of a new story that has both an original task and backlog definition populated. You could then use the flow to copy any additional information across.

Thanks,

Chris

Thanks @Chris Everding 

Can it be possible to do this via BR on rm_story table?

Yeah absolutely could be done via a business rule on the story table.

I only suggested a flow as it's a lower code/easier to maintain artifact.
