Roadmaps and Templates

Wolfgang Wernig

1. Is it possible to customize the project roadmaps?

2. Is it possible to configure your own hierarchy as is the case with "Epic -Task-Subtask" in existing project templates (Scrum, Kanban roadmaps)?

3. Can tasks also be displayed as bars on the roadmap like Epic's?

4. Can your own project templates be created and stored as is currently possible in the system?

Hello @Wolfgang Wernig,

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

1. Is it possible to customize the project roadmaps?

The Roadmap on Jira Software projects is basic. The features and customizations available are listed on the documentation below:

• Enable the roadmap

If there is specific customization you need, please share with us more details, so we can check if it's possible or we can create a suggestion.

2. Is it possible to configure your own hierarchy as is the case with "Epic -Task-Subtask" in existing project templates (Scrum, Kanban roadmaps)?

Currently, the roadmap only shows Epic and its child issues. There is a feature request suggesting the option to show sub-tasks as well:

• Option to Drill Down to Sub-Task in Next-Gen/Classic Roadmap

3. Can tasks also be displayed as bars on the roadmap like Epic's?

The date range is still no available for child issues. There is also a feature request suggesting this option:

• Date range for child issues on roadmap

4. Can your own project templates be created and stored as is currently possible in the system?

The creation of project templates is currently not supported. It’s possible to create projects with shared configurations, but custom templates are not possible. 

• Jira Service Management: 'Create with shared configuration' feature
• Create a new project (Please, check “Create a project that shares its configuration with another project”)

There are suggestions related to templates as well:

• Create a Custom Project Template
• Allow support for project schemes or templates

Please, click on vote and also watch the features I shared above to receive updates from our product teams.

If you have any other questions regarding this matter, please let us know.

Kind regards,
Angélica
