Customizing Work Item Types to behave like User Stories in the Agile process
I could not find any relevant tags for this item. If I should be posting this somewhere else, please let me know.
I am currently using devops (cloud) services. I have created a custom Work Item Type (WIT) within an inherited process from Agile. I would like to configure it to behave like exactly like Agile's User Story WIT. By this I mean:
- The WIT should be addable in the taskboard view of the Sprints (see first pic, WorkItemTaskBoard.png).
- One should be able to add tasks to the item just like User Story's like in the above screenshot.
- The WIT should rank below features in the WIT hierarchy. This way when it is added as a child of a feature it will be visible in the Backlogs view (see second pic, BacklogChildMissing.png)
According to my reading I need to export my inherited process as an XML, edit said XML then import the modified XML. I have two issues with this.
A. I have not found any reliable documentation how to perform the above.
B. Although I am using cloud based Devops (dev.azure.com) and am the organization owner I do not appear to have rights to import a process (see third pic, ImportProcessMissing.png)
Can anyone confirm that I need to perform the export, edit, import the XML as specified above in order to achieve 1, 2 and 3? If so, I would need help in figuring out how to import the process.

2022-02-28T14:36:53.877+00:00 Hello, according to my understanding of your reply, there is nowhere in the Microsoft forums or community where I can get answers to such questions, rather I should ask them on stack overflow. Can you confirm this?
