How can I move stories and tasks on the same Agile Board?

Hayley_Hinkle

My subtasks are nested under my stories on the Agile Board. I can move the tasks across the board, but I cannot move the stories. My tasks have To Do, In Progress, and Complete as their statuses. My stories break down In Progress to multiple statuses to show visibility into where we are with story. Having overlapping statuses causes you to only be able to move tasks and not stories across the board. Please help!!

To move an issue from one column to another, you must have:

A column definition that includes the status you wish to move the issue to (columns can contain many status)
A workflow that has a transition from the current status to the new one that is in the column
The permissions to allw you to perform that transition

So, you need to read your board definition alongside the workflow you've got for the stories, checking the status, transitions and conditions on the transitions.

I have my workflow transitions set up properly. I can move stories, but once they have subtasks, I can only move the subtasks and not the story.

Ok, that sounds like you may have a "condition" on the transtion that blocks your permission to move the story (my 3rd point, although I don't explicitly say "condition" in there). It's probably the "you may not move the story through this transition unless all its sub-tasks are in status x, y or z" type condition.

Where would I find a "condition" on the transition?
