Create the Dependencies

The team members can create dependencies for a user story to identify the requirements that a user story has on another story. For example, create a user story I can choose a payment method on the payment page. Add this user story as a dependency for the user story I can pay for parking pass by credit card.

Follow these steps:

1. Click Agile, and from Planning, click Backlog.
2. Select the product name from the Product drop-down list.
3. Click Details for the user story for which you want to create a dependency.
4. In the Dependencies for this User Story section, click New Dependency.
5. Complete the required informatiion.
6. Save your changes.

   The user story detail updates to reflect the dependency details.

After you create a dependency, the details page for the other user story displays information about the relationship in the Dependencies section.
