Need to move Intiatives along with linked issues

Kumar_ow8zf3

Hello Team,

I have a projects and in that project I have Issues 4 initiatives and for each initiative I have like 10-20 epics and for those epics have Story’s and for those Story has Subtask.

Here I’m trying to move 2 particular intiatives issues along those linked epics and epics related story’s and story related sub tasks

can you please help me here with the jql query

thanks,

Hi Phanidhar,

When you move story/task with sub-tasks to a different project, the sub-tasks also will be moved along with the parent story/task. So, you don't have to have a JQL which pulls the sub-tasks for bulk move.

For your requirement, I propose the below method instead of using a single bulk operation.

Move initiatives first so that it'll retain the Epics under those initiatives after the move.
Move Epics under each initiative in the next iteration. The Epic still holds the Stories/Tasks under it.
Then move stories/tasks under each Epic. Sub-tasks will be moved automatically along with it's parent story/task.

I know it's not straight forward for you, but will be safe to do.

Hello @Veera

Thanks for your response.

i followed your steps it worked the thing is each initiatives have like 20-30 epics and for those each epics have like 20-30 story’s

it’s such a pain while doing it. Anyway thank you again for your response

If jira provides a advance option like if parent issues move it has to move along with child that would be great

thanks,

Agree with you @Kumar , it's a pain to move manually when you have a lot of epics linked to an initiative.

I have the same problem and created a workaround. I made a label called !move-me!. I attach that label to everything I want to move (using the new List view is the fastest way to do this). Then I make a filter for everything labeled !move-me!. Then I save that filter, go to the filter, and bulk move items. It's not elegant, but faster than individually moving things.
