Struture isn't showing original estimate if its only added on sub-tasks level, how can I fix this?

Question

We are running v7.11 with structure, no other add ons, our guys are estimating their time and loggin work on the sub-tasks, which is rolling up correctly to the tasks.

However, in our structure view when I add a columb for 'Σ Original Estimate' it will not show all tasks as having estimates. (the sum of sub-items box is ticked)

How can I get structure to show these?

Its the same when I run a JQL search with 'originalEstimate = EMPTY' it shows tasks I know how sub-tasks with estimates and time logged.

Any help would be good.

Edit:

My issue is very much the same as this one: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Find-issues-with-no-estimates-including-calculated-Remaining/qaq-p/990300

However I do not have Script Runner,

Hi Sarah,

Thank you for your question. The sum over sub-items checkbox only works if sub-items are actually in the structure. From your description it seems that sub-tasks are not present in the structure, please, correct me if I am wrong. You can add the sub-tasks by adding Automation+>Extend>Sub-tasks to your structure's generators.

Please, check if it works for you.

As for JQL, currently JQL cannot pick up Structure-specific values as summary columns, formula columns or notes columns. We have plans to adding such functions, but they are far from completion at the moment.
