Task transitions to TODO when Subtask is created

aleksey.shishkin

We are using Jira Cloud in our Kanban project. I want to try the Scrum board. So I created one.

I also created a Story and put it in progress. Then I created a Sub-task in this Story - and the Story transitioned to TODO column. Why?

Both boards (the Kanban one and the Scrum one) use Simplified Workflow.

It depends on how swimlanes are configured, default is stories. But the Parent issue does not change, it stores the previous status.

See to it once.

If you want track the parent issue and child issue (Standard issue and sub-task issues) differently, go to swimlanes in board settings and change it to no swimlanes.

The advantage of swimlanes is that it groups the issues horizontally based on the option you choose.

Yes, "Base swimlanes on" is set to Stories. But Stories without sub-tasks doesn't look like a swimlane - they look like an ordinary issue, they are in the column corresponding to their status. Why?

Sub-tasks will be under their status along with the parent issue horizontally arranged as you can see in the screenshot included. (In the screenshot included all the sub-tasks are In-Progress and the parent issue status is shown along side the issue key i.e. In-Progress)
