Epics displaying as unassigned on Jira Plan (cloud)

[James Doyle]

I have been looking at creating plans in Jira for our development teams on the basis of giving us a solid holistic view of epics in progress and capacity etc. 

I have configured two plans and on one of the plans for some reason it keeps showing as unassigned (see below). 

I cant work out why these (total of around 5 epics appear in this section, they are assigned to a team and on most I am assigned to them as Assignee but yet they still appear in this section. 

Also have tried changing the plan to look at a project or the teams board but still they appear there. 

Any assistance greatly appreciated.

Hi @James Doyle 

You probably already found the solution, but then this might help others having the same issue:

Solution can be found in this article: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Advanced-planning-questions/Unassigned-in-Advanced-Roadmap/qaq-p/1857975

Once all child issues under an epic have been assigned to a team, the epic disappears from the Unassigned section.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for that @Kim Ranch Olsen that actually has resolved the issue. 

Cheers, James.

Hi @James Doyle 

I think the unassigned means unassigned to a specific user, but not a team. If you assign it to a user, it should disappear from Unassigned group.

Thanks,
