I am working to migrate Azure Devops server 2020 to Azure Devops services and following this document to resolve errors.
Based on the error finding in the Migrator validate report, we used "Conform project" powershell script to fix the process template and imported the process file back to server. We found that the correct file was imported and we did a project export(ExportProjectTemplate.ps1) to validate the files were imported.
However, when we run the Migrator validate again in the server. The error is still exist in the report and the pre-modified "ProcessConfiguration.xml" found in the zip file used for project validation.
Should I use witadmin deletefield to delete "PortfolioBacklog" element or other steps I can follow to fix this issue?
