The tfspreview.com hosted TFS solution is great, but we cannot save changes made via the process editor. So we are stuck with the default states and transitions for workitem types.

We typically don't use hours on our tasks. It would be nice to change the burndown in TFS to use story points on completed/non-completed PBIs instead.

Now we get error: TF208015: You are trying to add work items that are not in the selected team project for this Microsoft Excel file. Only the work items from the *** team project will be added to your work item list. If you want to add work items from another team project, open a new Microsoft Excel file from that team project.

Are you kidding me? How is it the TF client can display the results of the query, but the export cannot handle them too? Makes it incredibly cumbersome to manage program-level reporting...

It should allow creating workitems based on templates (which have pre-filled data). Creating hierarchy of workitems based on template(s). e.g. creating a template for Product Backlog item such that it would include the standard tasks (Sprint Backlog Tasks), Acceptance Tests in them (like Code Review, Writing Test Cases, etc). Organizing those tempales in folders. Some of this exists already, but the main missing piece is that you would have linked templates that would also be applied.

In TFS 2012 (Scrum Template) you can set a Task to Blocked. Problem is you need a query to see a task is blocked. I suggest Visualizing it in the Sprint board so that Team member know the item is blocked.

Integrate and extend the Project Linker extension to solve the problem of solution with multiple targeting (WPF - Silverlight - WP7 - WinRT...), for example loading only the solution's projects of the target selected, instead of all (in our case we have a solution with more than 140 project).

There is still no way to track work items using witadmin command tool for TFS on Azure, suggest implement this feature.

This tool was very helpful for admins, you could easily see performance and usage info of the system. This should also be tied in with a way to control security on TFS Sharepoint and Reports.

I will be useful to integrate TFS with Office 365.

By design the board only shows tasks that are associated with Product Backlog Items (it does not show 'free-floating' tasks). I feel the "board" is an excelent way of having an overview of the ongoing tasks, the big picture, the dailly work. It becomes somehow confusing that some tasks are not present. If it does not brake any Scrum principle and you guys feel the same way, than I say it would be a nice thing to change.

Separate commits and pushes (which is currently one check-in operation). Improve offline support for sources.

I am trying to setup TFS alerts for the team and would like to setup an alert where everyone who is or was part of "AssignedTo" field during the life cycle of the work item gets notified.

I need to ensure everyone who ever worked on a workitem should receive notification email till it is closed.

I don't we have any feature like this out of the box, but it would really help in making TFS more popular.

When I am working with the sprint backlog in the new new web UI I want a way to easily re order the backlog items in the sprint.I can currently do this in the main product backlog but not in a sprint backlog

Visual Studio's current Code Review feature works only from within Visual Studio: https://tfs.visualstudio.com/en-us/learn/code/get-your-code-reviewed-vs

When using TFService with git, we need something similar to Pull Requests, as a means for performing code reviews, as github.com and bitbucket.org offer:

It is currently possible to check in files that fail the checkin policies of a team project by also checking in files from other team projects at the same time. See http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/726309/custom-checkin-policy-not-being-applied for more details about this currently "by design" "feature".

I want to be able to customize the colors of the work items on the task board. Specifically, I want all Blocked tasks to be a light gray, as if they were disabled. I also want to customize the color of the task depending on the Activity field. So Development tasks would be one color and testing tasks would be another color.
