Not able to add Sprint # to a ChildTask(Sub-task)

Question

Hi,

I expected, whenever a story is got allocated to a sprint all its respective ChildTask(Sub-task) should also get pointed to the sprint # by default, but it is not happening.

Even i added a new field "Sprint"to a ChildTask(Sub-task) thru configurations, but still it is not appearing on the ChildTask(Sub-task) page, but it is appearing while loading the page after the page got loaded it is disappearing.

Problem i am facing is when i am trying to export all subtask and stories of a sprint to CSV, all sub-task are getting missed out.

Hello Shiva,

Thank you for reaching out.

Per your screenshots, I believe that you are seeing this behavior only in a Next-gen project, where Sprints are not being added to the sub-tasks although it works fine for their parents. Is it correct?

In fact, we identified this behavior in Next-gen and reported a bug to get it fixed:

- Sprint field on the next-gen project doesn't display on the new issue view for sub-task Issuetype

Feel free to vote and watch the bug to increase its priority and also receive notifications about any updates.

For now, if you want to export the sub-task issues you will need to determine their parents in the JQL query. These would be the steps:

1 - Navigate to your issue navigator and click in Advanced > Run the query

Sprint = "Sprint 7.6"

2 - Copy all the parent issues returned by the query

3 - add to the query:

Sprint = "Sprint 7.6" or Parent in  "PARENTISSUE-1, PARENTISSUE-2, ..."

4 -perform the export

Let me know if you have any questions.
