Hello,

Currently TFS does not save any queriable information regarding parent and child work items.

This is will be provided in the future release.

Right now this functionality is not possible with our product. As Smitha stated, we are looking into this for a future release. Just to be clear, are looking for a parent work item to be closed when all of its children are closed, and you want this to be automatically done for you?
