I want to create a group membership with below Template for created team project (not for new one):

<group name="Active" description="Active">
          <permissions>
            <permission name="GENERIC_READ" class="PROJECT" allow="true" />
            <permission name="DELETE_TEST_RESULTS" class="PROJECT" allow="false" />
            <permission name="PUBLISH_TEST_RESULTS" class="PROJECT" allow="false" />
            <permission name="VIEW_TEST_RESULTS" class="PROJECT" allow="false" />
            <permission name="GENERIC_READ" class="CSS_NODE" allow="true" />
            <permission name="WORK_ITEM_READ" class="CSS_NODE" allow="true" />
            <permission name="WORK_ITEM_WRITE" class="CSS_NODE" allow="true" />
            <permission name="MANAGE_TEST_PLANS" class="CSS_NODE" allow="true" />
            <permission name="MANAGE_TEST_ENVIRONMENTS" class="PROJECT" allow="false" />
            <permission name="MANAGE_TEST_CONFIGURATIONS" class="PROJECT" allow="false" />
          </permissions>
        </group>

note that in the existing wizard for creating new group membership(Context Menu>Team Project Settings>Group Membership), I can not set WORK_ITEM_WRITE and WORK_ITEM_READ permission!

In the XML, it says class="CSS_NODE". This means that WORK_ITEM_WRITE and WORK_ITEM_READ permissions are set for each Area in a Team Project, rather than the Team Project itself.

Area-level permissions are specific to a single project's users and groups. You can set these permissions by right-clicking the project in Team Explorer, clicking Areas and Iterations, and on the Area tab, clicking Security.

See 'Area-level permissions' on the Team Foundation Server Permissions page on MSDN.
