    About this task

    The Planning board uses state bucket configurations in the dictionary to map story cards to columns. If a custom state choice is not mapped to a state bucket, the Planning board can't locate cards in that state after a page reload. Cards in unmapped states disappear. Complete this task after adding any custom state choice to the story work item type.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > System Definition > Tables.
    2. Open the rm_story table.
    3. In the Columns related list, open the State column record.
    4. In the Dictionary Overrides related list, open the rm_story record.
    5. In the Attributes field, add the custom state choice to the appropriate state bucket.
    6. Select Save.
