Multiple templates per one work item/document type

Modified on Mon, 15 Mar 2021 at 09:57 PM

Since version: 2.6.0

By default, the system loads a checklist template depending on work item /document type. You can define it via specifying the property


nextedy.checklist.YOUR_WI_TYPE.YOUR_CHECKLIST_ID.workItemTemplateId=EL-120


You can reconfigure the system by specifying what is the control field.


Example:


Imagine you have a work item custom field "requirementType", which is the enumeration that has two options "system" or "software"


You want a checklist "requirementReady" to be loaded from a template that is different for system or software requirements.


First, you set that the requirementType is a control field.

nextedy.checklist.workitem.requirementReady.controlField=requirementType


and second, you can define the templates:


nextedy.checklist.system.requirementType.workItemTemplateId=EL-120
nextedy.checklist.software.requirementType.workItemTemplateId=EL-121


The same applies for Documents, just use the property:


nextedy.checklist.document.CHECKLIST_ID.controlField=DOCUMENT_CUSTOM_FIELD _ID



All configuration properties are stored in Project Administration > Configuration Properties.
