When a tasks is published to TFS, whether Original estimate , remaining hrs and complete hrs can be populated

Question

Hi,

We have integrated TFS 2010 and Project server 2010.

When a tasks is published to TFS, whether Original estimate , remaining hrs and complete hrs  can be populated in TFS?

Thanks, Lovely

Answer 1

Hi Lovely, you can see the details of what fields are mapped and in what direction they are mapped by downloading the fields mapping for the TFS Collection using the "tfsadmin projectserver /downloadfieldsmapping" command. If I understood your question correct the answer is that you can update Remaining and Completed work in TFS and those updates will be sent to Project Server. Original estimate updates in TFS will not be sent to project server because in the default mapping that field is mapped to the baseline Project Server field that does not accept updates through statusing (so it is only mapped to move data from PS to TFS but not in the other direction).

Thank you.
