Delete a User Story
You can delete a user story, if you are a team member assigned to the product. When a user story is deleted, the following user story details are also deleted:
- Dependencies required by the user story
- Acceptance criteria
- Tasks that are part of the user story
- Comments
Deleting a user story has the following effects on burndown charts:
- Any hours reported for tasks belonging to the deleted user story are deleted.
- The burndown chart guidelines are adjusted to reflect the hours or points removed by the deletion. The adjustment is effective from the day the user story was deleted.
- The actual burndown and burnup lines show any points or hours for the deleted user story and its tasks.
Follow these steps:
- Open the user story from the backlog page.
- Click Delete.
- Click OK to confirm and close the user detail page.
The user story and related tasks are deleted and burndown charts are updated.
