Summary
Adopt a standardized organization-wide issue type policy and limit available issue types to the approved set.
Policy
Allowed issue types:
- Task —
green
- PBI —
blue
- Epic —
purple
All other issue types should be disabled/removed from availability at the organization level.
Scope
- Configure issue types at the MSXOrg organization level.
- Ensure repositories inheriting org defaults only expose the approved types.
Acceptance criteria
- Only
Task, PBI, and Epic are available when creating/selecting issue types.
- Colors match policy exactly:
- Task = green
- PBI = blue
- Epic = purple
- Previously available non-approved types (e.g., Bug, Feature) are no longer available for new usage.
- Policy is documented in org governance docs so future admins keep the same standard.
Notes
- If existing historical issues use now-disallowed types, keep history intact while preventing new usage of disallowed types.
