Let's say I have created multiple user stories under same epic link "USER" and the stories are say "USR-01", "USR-02", "USR-03", "USR-04" and "USR-05". Now I am trying to create sub-task for all the user stories. As the epic link is same the sub-task descriptions are also same. Is there any way I can create one sub-task say "SBTSK-01" and make them reflect under all the user stories?

Hey @Swayambhu,

your sub-tasks will need a parent issue and will only be able to have a single parent issue. The available built-in way to also establish a relationship to other issues as well is through using issue links. Which of course is of a different kind but at least the issue will be reflected in all user stories. So maybe it's worthwhile to use a regular issue type and issue links in the first place to not have to mix up parent-child relationships with issue links? 

Best, Max
