Select backlog navigation levels for your team

TFS 2018

Each team has the flexibility to choose their preferred backlog levels. Feature teams may focus on their product backlog, while management teams may only display feature and epic backlogs (the default portfolio backlogs). You can configure backlog levels through team settings.

If you need more portfolio backlogs, see Add portfolio backlogs.

Prerequisites

To configure team settings, you must be added to the Team Administrator role or be a member of the Project Administrators security group. To get added, see Add a team administrator or Change project-level permissions.
