Hi,
I'm trying to avoid using the full create-issue dialogue ("Due to the configuration for this particular board, you'll have to use the full dialog to create a new issue") when clicking the 'create issue' button in my backlog.
My project configuration is as follows:
Project 'PRD' contains requirements (long-term strategic needs) and epics (fixed, specific, 3-month goals towards these requirements). The epics have components (teamA, teamB, teamC), that represent my skill teams. I allow epics to have more than one component, indicating that more than one team contributes to the epic.
Project 'Development' has 3 boards, for each of teamA, teamB, teamC, with a filter that looks like:
"((project = Development or (project = PRD and type = Epic)) and component = teamA"
Issues with other types (story, task, subtask, defect, etc) are created in the Development project, but with an Epic Link pointing to one of the PRD epics.
So my key question is: is there any way for epics from one project to appear on the board of another, and still use the quick-entry dialogue when creating issues on the backlog?
I'm open to modifying issue field configurations if that makes any difference, though a bit of experimentation indicates that mandatory fields aren't the problem here.
Thanks!!
Will.
