Status are not updating

[MadCapMonster]

Hi,
I missed the default mapping for "new" when I ran this on a test project, new is not a valid state in source or target, I tried to correct the issue but when I ran it again it's not update the state at all now, is there a way to force it to set to the source state?

thanks in advance

Yes, you can use the WorkItemPostProcessingContext to overwrite the target with the current latest version from the Source....

The WorkItemPostProcessingContext will not create new work items and will only update existing ones with an updated mapping. If you run it with the default field mapping removed it will overwrite.

note: The History will still show all new for each update.

Another option would be to use the WorkItemDelete to remove the work items and start again.
