TFS 2010 Workitem auto transition

How can I make work item to auto tansit from new to assigned state when I populate Assigned To field. Ie. I have reported a bug so its state is new. Now I populate (select from dropdown) the Assigned To field, and I want it to automatically transit to Assigned state (Active state).

Please help.

As already written this is not possible using TFS out-of-the-bos. But you can use TFS ASAP to automate your work items. Further you can also aggregate numbers e.g. efforts and much more...

What you want cannot be done out of the box with TFS.

However, I created an open source project called TFS Aggregator to give the support you are looking for.

You could setup an aggregation something like this:

 <AggregatorItem operationType="String" linkType="Self" workItemType="Bug">
    <Mappings>      
      <Mapping targetValue="Assigned" inclusive="Or">
        <SourceValue>New</SourceValue>
      </Mapping>
    </Mappings>
    <Conditions>
      <Condition leftField="Assigned To" operator="NotEqualTo" rightValue=""/>
      <Condition leftField="State" operator="NotEqualTo" rightValue="Removed"/>
      <Condition leftField="State" operator="NotEqualTo" rightValue="Done"/>
      <Condition leftField="State" operator="NotEqualTo" rightValue="Ready For Test"/>
  <Condition leftField="State" operator="NotEqualTo" rightValue="In Progress"/>
    </Conditions>
    <TargetItem name="State"/>
    <SourceItem name="State"/>
  </AggregatorItem>

That should move your bug to Assigned from New.
