I have installed TFS 2010 using the Scrum for Team System v3. The work item templates want you to enter a Project Backlog Item that includes story points, then you need to add linked tasks as a child of the PBI. It is at the task level where you can assign team individuals, update estimated hours left, etc.

What is the importance of the Story Points used at the PBI item if individual tasks are using hours?

Has anyone customized this template so that the child work item tasks use story point burn downs instead of hours? Also, I would be nice to have the total number of story points from each individual task roll up into the PBI item as a read only field for total story points.

Thanks for your time.

    We ended up using the TFS Agile template, but just ending up using the “Effort Hours” in the work item tasks and refer to them as story points.
