    <p>Our company has a small development team in-house but we mostly outsource our customer projects to external consulting firms which we don't manage directly. We only interact with their project manager and maybe a team lead.</p> <p>I'm implementing TFS 2010 and Scrum for our internal team for Project Management, Version Control and Sharepoint shared documents access.</p> <p>My problem is how to to manage the external teams.</p> <p>They won't use our TFS for Version control and I can't forced them to use Scrum and report as such (report on a task level adding remaining hours).</p> <p>The solution I came with is this:</p> <ul> <li>Use the “MSF for Agile Software Development v5.0” template in Team Foundation Server.</li> <li>Break the project into user stories and then create a task for each.</li> </ul> <p>The tasks have these fields:</p> <ol> <li><p>Original Estimate<br> Since we’ll track percentage of completion, this will always be 100.</p></li> <li><p>Remaining<br> This is the percentage of remaining work.</p></li> <li><p>Completed<br> This is the percentage of competed work.</p></li> </ol> <p>Their team lead will update the remaining work in percentage for each user story (on the task level). If progress is reported correctly I can print a "Stories Overview" report periodically and see the percentage complete for each user story,</p> <hr> <p>I'm sure it must be a better way out there and I'll appreciate any help on getting to the right direction.</p> <p>Thanks</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
