Define the Owners for the User Stories and Issues

The owner of a user story or issue is responsible for completing the work that is associated with the story. You can assign a user story or issue to more than one owner.

For example, Pay Parking Pass by Credit Card user story can be assigned to two software programmers. The two programmers work together to complete the user story. While one programmer writes the code for the feature, the other programmer reviews the code, and they switch roles frequently.

Follow these steps:

1. Click Agile, and from Planning, click Backlog.
2. Select the product name from the Product drop-down list.
3. Select the user story and click Details.
4. Select owners of the user story.
5. Save your changes.
