Change Work Item Type on the Story Map

Change Work Item Type directly on the User Story Map

This enhancement significantly reduces friction by enabling users to directly update the work item type at any level (e.g., Epic, Story, Task, Initiative) within the user story map itself. This will remove the need for users to open items separately in modals, tabs, or windows to make these changes, disrupting workflow.

Key features include:

• Direct updates to work item types on all story map hierarchy levels (Epic, Story, Task, Initiative).

• Intelligent filtering that respects existing board filters and hierarchy levels.

• Seamless handling of required fields by directing users to the EA Issue View when necessary.

This feature supports teams to strategize their day, simplifies planning and prioritization workflows, and improves visibility and tracking across team operations.
