I have a requirement to change the layout of the Task in Azure DevOps Server 2019. I want to relocate the "Details" section under the "Staus" section. I tried using the Process editor via VS 2019. But doesn't work published WIT show no modifications. Can anyone guide me through this?

Layout change I did: enter image description here

Additional Note: I tried following the inherited process model but got stuck. According to this article some links are missing on our DevOps Server 2019. I logged in as the administrator of the DevOps server. Please refer to the screenshot attached. enter image description here

In Azure DevOps, we do have two process models,On-premises XML process model and Inheritance process model.

For Azure DevOps Server 2019, you have a choice of process models. When you create a project collection, you'll need to choose between On-premises XML process model and Inheritance process model.

Using the Process editor via VS 2019 only apply to On-premises XML process model.

If you are using inherited process, you need to do the customization in web portal directly-- Customize the web layout for a work item type (Inheritance process)

More details about the customization of these two models:

  • We were migrated to 2019 from 2015 and can’t remember which process model we selected or even prompted for. So since my on prem xml doesn’t work I think we’re on inherited model. So I will undo the changes and try using the web portal. Will this be fine? – SurenSaluka Apr 01 '20 at 08:43

    @SurenSaluka Yes, suggest you give a test on it. At least, you could narrow down if the issue is related process model or not. – PatrickLu-MSFT Apr 01 '20 at 09:06
  • Thanks. I'll give a shot later and let you know how it went. Cheers! – SurenSaluka Apr 01 '20 at 09:30
  • Hi, I tried but failed. Please refer to the "Additional Note" section of the question. I have updated it. – SurenSaluka Apr 27 '20 at 08:17
