Issue types

[Victor Wallenberg]

Hi

I haven't work with Jira for some time but know I'm in a new project and I would like to add a new Issue Type Feature. A Feature will be the highest level and will be broken down to 1 ore more Epic, a Epica can then be broken down to 1 ore many Stories and so on.

When I have selected an Epic I can create one or many sub issues (Task or Stories) but when i have a Featue (the new issue type) i can add one or many sub issues but only of issue type task, can I change that so that I can add one or many sub issues (Task or Epics)

Hi Victor,

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

No, you cannot change the change the type that is created as a sub-issue to your feature.

If you are on a Premium plan you have access to Advanced roadmaps, which allows you to set up a hierarchy above of what Jira can do (Epics - Stories/Tasks - Sub-tasks). If you are not on the Premium plan you would have to either use the linked issues to create a similar set up, or use an app like Structure which allows you to create a customized hierarchy.

Hi

Thanks, then I will look at the premium plan.

Now I have a the premium version, so how to I get to Advanced roadmaps,

[Mikael Sandberg]

In Advanced roadmap the linking between parent-child issues are done using the Parent Link field, have a look at this KB for for more information.

And I have only Swedish text, how do I change to English?

And here is the KB for how to configure the hierarchy levels.

The language is set in your user profile. Got to your Avatar > Profile > Manage account > Account preferences and from here you can change the language.

Hi,

I have added Available Issue Types to Issue Types for Current Scheme, and I have one that is a child

I do select Products but I can't find Advanced Roadmaps hierarchy configuration

[Mikael Sandberg]

You should see something like this if you are on the Premium plan

 

Plans is the advanced roadmaps, and you set up the hierarchy by going to Plans > Settings > Advanced Roadmaps hierarchy configuration and from here you can add issues above the epic level.
