We customized the delivery plan last week, today we will see a bit more customization options
Open Delivery Plan
Navigation:- [Organization_Name] → [Project_Name] → Boards → Delivery Plans
4. Apply styling rules:
We can use styling rules to highlight specific cards which match our rule
Let's say we want to highlight all the high-risk workitems in the delivery plan
From the plan settings add a styling rule as given below
We will use the red color to highlight the high-risk work items
All the high-risk work items now standout with a red fill
5. Apply tag colors:
Tag colors can be applied to highlight specific tags
From the plan settings apply tag color as shown below
Click on "Expand Card Fields"
The tag "website" is highlighted in green
6. Add fields to be displayed on the cards:
Delivery plans are effective only if the underlying work items are updated regularly
How do we know if the work items are getting updated?
Changed date field will be updated when a work item is modified but this field is not available on the card
let's customize the card to include "Changed Date"
The "Changed Date" is now visible on the cards
