TF51005: The query references a field that does not exist (ReflectedWorkItemId) about azure-devops-migration-tools HOT 6 CLOSED

I checked more and got to know that i need to add ReflectedWorkItemId field in source and target VSTS process templates. I would like to know if i need to add this field to all workitem types and if yes then will i be able to remove it at the end of migration.
Also please let me know more on this field ReflectedWorkItemId which is mandatory in this case, like an example would help.

from azure-devops-migration-tools.

This field simply store information where particular work item has been migrated. You have to add to every work item definition that you are migrating, this apply to source and destination project WIT definitions.

I did it at destination for workitem type bug and it does not allow me to add in any other workitem type, says field exists. Then i started migration but get the following error. Any help will really help in the migration.

I am glad that you got it working. It is a very complicated process and these tools are not for the faint of heart. :)
