Description

Description
Context

Users need a way to indicate that a WP timeline is changing because another WP was delayed but was never marked as blocking.

Task

Add a checkbox under the existing "why" text box on the work package CR creation form.

Label it:

Timeline changing due to another WP being delayed that wasn't marked as blocking.

Send the value as timelineChangeFromUnmarkedBlocker with the work package proposed changes.

Acceptance Criteria
  • The checkbox appears under the "why" text box for applicable WP change requests.
  • It defaults to unchecked.
  • Existing CR creation behavior is unchanged otherwise.

Research direction

Add the unchecked checkbox beneath that field for applicable requests, send its value as timelineChangeFromUnmarkedBlocker, and verify that other CR creation behavior remains unchanged.
