Hakan Eskici : What is Work Item Web Access (WIWA)?

What is Work Item Web Access (WIWA)?

WIWA is a Web UI that allows using some work item tracking features even if the user doesn’t have a Client Access License (CAL). It’s based on TSWA, but provided as a separate download. WIWA simply enables 3 core “file-a-bug” scenarios stated in the TFS 2008 EULA.

As a user without a TFS CAL, you can use Work Item Web Access (WIWA) to:

* Create new work items
* Edit the work item you have created
* See the list of work items you have created

However, you cannot:

* See work items created by others
* List, view, edit or run work item queries
* Add, edit or remove work item links (except attachments and hyperlinks)
* Access documents stored on the project portal
* Access project reports
* Access source control
* Access team build



You can download the CTP release for Work Item Web Access 2008 at:
