Adding Numerics in addition to COPY for work items


A feature of being able to add values to fields from values in other fields needs to be added for work items process flow customization.

For example, as of now when a work item is 'resolved' by way of associating it to a check-in, it does not add the value in remaining hours to completed hours. If this were possible it would be great for updating project plans in MS Project when refreshed because a value of 0 in remaining hours triggers a 100% task complete in Project. As of now the people associating the work items to check-ins need to remember to make the hours adjustment prior to check-in. Can't automate this by modifying the process template because addition is not possible.

Thank you for the suggestion. We will add it to our possible future feature list.
