How to add existing issues to portfolio plan below story/epic level

[Abdullah Bakhach]

I'm using portfolio for jira (https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/portfolio\).. and everything is working great in my first plan, however it seems that i cannot add existing issues under my epics as part of the plan.

see an image illustrating the problem here 

how can I make that happen?

Hi Abdullah,

This question has been answered through (support.atlassian.com), but I'll add the answers here as reference for other users who might have the same problem,  :)

Some of the Epic Childs are in "Done state" hence it won't be shown by default (unless you make some changes in the Portfolio filter). The definition "Done/Complete" issues here are those statuses that are in Done Category:
- https://<Instance URL>/secure/admin/ViewStatuses.jspa

As for the other issues that are not "Done" yet, you can re-include them back by following these steps:

• Navigate to the plan configuration > Sources: https://<Instance URL>/secure/PortfolioPlanView.jspa?id=<Plan ID>&sid=#settings/sources
• Edit Sources > Next > Next > find the missing issues and tick them (just hover your mouse in each of the issues and you will see tick box)
• Repeat the above for any issues that you want to show in the plan
• Done

This sounds overly convulted solution. It would be good to have feature to just punch in issue key to show up on the plan.

but i still see that there is an intermittent issue while doing the above process. It doesnt get RE ADDED again. I believe ATLASSIAN is aware of this BUG.
