Summary

As a User, I would need the ability to be able to modify/change the Dependency levels(EPIC/ Features/Capabilities) after a dependency is created.

Steps to Replicate:

  • Create a Dependency, with "Feature" as "What is this Dependency for?".

  • Once the Dependency is created, open the newly created Dependency from the Dependencies page.

  • There we don't have the option to change the Value from Feature to EPIC or Capability.

Solution

For now, there is no Solution or workaround to achieve it. Hence, we have created a suggestion to report the same to our engineering team.
