Attach a New Measure to a Project

Any templated measure can be attached to a project.

Note: If the measure template is modified in the future, your project measure will change to reflect those changes.

Note: Multiple measures can exist with the same name. This often occurs when users create multiple versions with updated information or keep a version available to make copies from quickly. Here are the ways in which multiple Measures with the same name are displayed:

Report Wizard: All instances of the same Measure are displayed when the measure name is selected from the list of available Measures.

Measure Mass Attach/Evaluate: If the Attach only if not already attached option is not selected, then every time a new instance of the Measure is created, it will be added to the work item.

Dashboard: The Dashboard only displays one instance of the Measure, which is always the most current version.

Visual Portals: All instances of the Measure are listed, allowing the user to select any desired.

Copy Project: All instances of the Measures are copied to the new Project (no values are copied).
