Single Team Project, multiple teams default area not being set

Question

We have moved from A single collection with many team projects, to a single collection, with one team project, and just many source control folders (One for each project).

For each project we are going to use areas/teams to split things down logically.

However, we expect The Business who aren't TFS users will log bugs and such, via the correct team.

I have assigned default areas for the correct teams, and at some point in the move, we were able to view a team via web access, create a new Work Item, and it would use the correct Area.

For whatever reason this has now stopped - is there something I need to set to make sure it uses the correct/default area for the team?

Answer 1

I finally got this working by making sure the Team Name had no spaces This was the key and area have no spaces

Before one of our teams was Web Reports with an area Web Reports, nothing worked.

Changing the Team and Area to WebReports, and also marked the WebReports area as the default team for that area, and things started working.
