We are using Jira to manage software development for a larger system. The board is organized in a way that reflects the software component "view" of the project and is working well for the team, but there is a desire to track the progress of the progress from a system functional view.
I'd like some way to provide this "alternate view" of the stories and tasks without any disruption to the team because all this data are already tracked by the Jira. I can create a second list of features that captures this "alternate view" of the system. I thought that it would be possible to view the stories remapped to this alternate view on a second Jira board, but I forgot that the issue hierarchy requires that the issue can only have one parent so a single issue can't belong to two different features/epics. I can link issues to the other feature list but how can I generate a reports based on the alternate/linked features, similar to how feature/epics are normally tracked (# issues, # complete, unestimated, estimated)?
