New Parent field

[Lena Sargsyan]

Hi,

I would like to check if there is a way to change parent right from the issue view like it was possible in case of epic links.

Also in the drop down the parent to choose from there are only Epics. So, it turns out that only the field name has been changed from Epic link to Parent? 

Thank you !

Hi @Lena Sargsyan 

you would need to configure the screen used on your ticket type to show the parent field always, and move it out from the section says "hide when empty".

about the nature of this field, it can be used to link tasks/stories with the epic. so if you click on this dropdown from task/story you will see only epics.

however, if you click on it from epic view you will only see initiatives in case you are using this ticket type which comes above the epic in terms of hierarchy.

Hope the above helps.
