project management - TFS: Why do Issues appear on the Backlog? -

we using tfs 2015 cmmi process template , have found out issues appear on backlog if child of feature or requirement work item type. if issue standalone (has not link 1 of 2 mentioned work item types) not visible on backlog.

i guess has made hacks here in order make possible. originally, epics, features, requirements, tasks, , bugs should appear on backlog.

i have checked issue work item type definition processconfiguration.xml , categories.xml quite ok point of view.

are there places 1 define work item types should visible on backlog?

thanks lot giving support.

to add wit on backlog, 3 files below need updated:

• wit definition
• categories definition
• processconfiguration definition

you can check required changes on link: add work item types backlogs , boards see if these changes had been applied on project. if yes, revert these changes, issue should disappear backlog.
