ALM Structure - How do I group only under a specific forlder?

Avi Bachar

I have this structure as in the picture

you can see the epics and under the epics all kind of items related to the epic with Epic Link (you do not see in the picture cause the folder is collapse)

Now I have a formula grouping that create folders

1> Allocations (group issues of type Allocation)

2> Documents (group issues of type Document)

3> Requirements (group issues of type Requirement)

4> Dev Plans (group issues of other types like stories, field cases, defects etc)

Now for my issue!

I would like to have another grouping level by Scrum Team (like "ClearSee")

but only under folder "4> Dev Plans"

I have created another group formula like this :

WITH FeatureFolderName = if (issuetype != "allocation" and issuetype != "document" and issuetype != "requirment" ;
scrumteam; "")
:
FeatureFolderName

but as you can see I get "No Value" group also under the other groups

I do not want any group under the other groups.

how can I achieve that?

Hi Avi,

Dmitrii with ALM Works here.

I recommend positioning your new grouper underneath the 4th (Dev Plans) folder only. This way other folders should remain the same (you will not see 'No value' folders).

Hope this helps!

it doesn't allow me to generate it

but I do not wish to allow changes via structure

Hello Avi,

Thank you for the additional information.

This error message is created because the folders are actually groups, created by a generator.

A group generator's scope, in the same manner as other generators', is covering tasks right underneath it. That's why on your first screenshot (when you place both group generators at the top) you get 'No value' folders - your new generator is considering all tasks and is trying to group tasks under all 4 folders.

Currently a group generator can't be applied to only a portion of tasks on a level, it is applied for all tasks on a level. And in your setup all folders are positioned on the same level, that is why groupers can't be used here to achieve your goal.

In your case we will need to try a different approach. Could you please raise a support request for this by emailing us via support@almworks.com? We will want to review some additional configuration options with you.

Kind regards,

Dmitrii Kuzmin
