how to include Azure Devops CMMI template Risk element into Scrum Template

Question

Is there any opportunity of include the Risk Work Item used in Azure DevOps CMMI template, into an already created Scrum template project???

If not, can I create my own customized work items? as for ex. Risks?

Answer 1

You can't 'clone' the Risk work item from CMMI to Scrum, but you can recreate it with the same fields.

The docs walk you through the process:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/organizations/settings/work/customize-process

Basic steps:

1. Create a inherited process under the scrum process
2. Create a new Work Item Type in the inherited process
3. Add all the fields from the Risk work item type
4. Assign the process to the project
