Add the due date field to your work items

If not already enabled, here’s how to add the due date field to work items so you can quickly schedule them on the calendar view.

If you’re using a company-managed project:

1. In your project, open a work item.

2. At the bottom of the view, select Configure. You’ll be taken to the layout page in project settings.

3. Locate the Due date field, then drag and drop it to the desired position.

4. Select Save changes.

If you’re using a team-managed project:

1. In your project, open a work item.

2. At the bottom of the view, select Configure. You’ll be taken to the work type’s page in project settings.

3. Locate the Due date field, then drag and drop it to the desired position.

4. Select Save changes.

In team-managed projects, the due date needs to be configured for each work type. To add the field to another work type, select a work type in the left nav, and complete the above steps.
