Team Process Management
This article explains how to use the Team process management feature in Agility.
Overview
Any member with Admin Privileges to edit teams can modify the Teams Process. Refer to the Admin Privileges articles for more details.
A prescribed process is a great way to get started with agile development, but as teams mature and reflect on how they work they frequently want to adjust their process. The Team Process Management feature, gives them the ability to independently define and manage their own process while providing cross-team managers and stakeholders visibility into the work being delivered.
When a Team defines a process, that process is used for all backlog items owned by the team, regardless of where the they reside in the project and planning hierarchy.
