Using Relations to Categorize Items
The RELATIONS feature enables you to group them by the requirements and user stories. This grouping is detected automatically using the work item's tracker fields.
To use the RELATIONS feature:
• Set up a field from your tracker referring to User Stories with any label.
• Set up a field from your tracker referring to Requirements with any label.
• Set up a reference-type field in the User Story type tracker that points to a Requirement type tracker.
Only the first two levels—the Requirement and User story—are displayed. You can filter work items in the center pane by selecting one of the Relationship items
 |
Only the first Reference field is picked up for each examined tracker. If more than one is configured, the system may arbitrarily choose any of them to detect relations.

If you use a Reference field in the Add Group by section of the Filter widget, the RELATIONS section will reflect the result.
Show Parent Items
Each parent receives a uniquely colored label and indicator grouping items with the same parents sequentially.
Parents can be displayed for releases, sprints, and Product Backlog.
You can group the results using the Parent field.
