Editing a task

To edit a task of a work item you must have the Update right on the teamboard. If you are a creator of the work item containing the task then it is enough to have the Update own right.

If you do not have these rights the task edit dialog will be opened in the read only mode.

 

You can always open the task edit dialog by double clicking the task in any view.

You can also open it by pressing the pen icon Pen. This icon can be found in the following ways:

 

1.Right mouse click on the task in any view. The following menu with the pen icon appears:
