WHY the TFS forecast tool ignores Active, Resolved items?

Question

In learn.microsoft article there is a statement:

> The forecast tool ignores Scrum items set to Committed or Done and Agile and CMMI items set to Active, Resolved, or Completed.

And so the tool includes in current iteration's forecast such items:

• really moved to the current iteration and really active and resolved;
• and next few iterms really moved to the next iteration;

WHY they are ignored? They don't complete and the team need time to complete ones! I don't understand how to use this tool? What kind of process proposed to use?
Thanks a lot!

Hi,

TFS (nowadays known as "Azure DevOps Server") is currently not supported in the Q&A forums, the supported products are listed over here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/products (more to be added later on).

You can ask the experts in the dedicated Azure DevOps Server forum over here:
