Pending Work Items

Work items can be pended, which causes them to be hidden in the work item list until a specified date/time, or period of time has expired. The work item becomes visible again when the date/time occurs, or period of time expires. Work items can be pended only if they have a state of Allocated.

1. Choose the work items to be pended in one of the following ways:
   • Select one or more work items, then click in the header bar.
   • Select a single work item, then select > Pend.

   
   
   
2. On the Pend work item dialog, select the appropriate radio button, depending on whether you want to specify a specific date and time, or a period of time.
3. Specify the date/time or period of time, then click Pend.
   The pended work items become hidden in your work view.

   For information about an option to view work items in a Pendhidden state, see Displaying Visible Hidden Work Items.
