- Create Jazz Work Items from planned tasks only from the WBS: this option allows you to fine tune which WBS activities and tasks are available as tasks in the work item template. If checked, only those WBS elements marked as “planned” are available. If not checked, all the elements in the WBS selection are available as tasks in the work item template.
- Add type prefix to Jazz work item summary: if checked, this option adds the type of the element (i.e. Activity or Task) as prefix to the work item summary text.
- Create Jazz work items for phases and iterations from the WBS: if checked, this option creates a task work item for each phase and iteration node (in addition to activity and task nodes) from the WBS. If not checked, only activities and tasks from the WBS selection become work items.
