Advanced Roadmaps for Jira Software Standard

atarab

Hi,

We have Jira Software Standard.

Is there a way for us to get Advanced Roadmaps as an add-on, without needing to switch our entire instance to Jira Software Pro?

Thank you

Hi @atarab - No, you must have a Premium subscription in order to get Advanced Roadmaps.

Hi @atarab

As @John Funk mentioned you need to have premium, do you have the list of requirements related to road maps? I guess the in built roadmap is not sufficient for your requirements. There are other apps like Structure, BigPicture that might be helpful.

Do take a look at these apps from the marketplace.

Our main requirement is a more flexible hierarchy. More specifically, we would need a level between Epic and User-story, so the hierarchy would be:

Epic -> Feature -> User Story -> Subtask.

I've been experimenting with the structure add-on, but I found that while it allows me to display User Stories as children of features (based on a custom issue link I created called "Implements/Implemented by"), it is only a display, not a real parent-child relationship.

This creates two problems:

It is less convenient, because Stories cannot be created from inside a feature (the way they can be created in Epics, or the way Subtasks can be created in stories), but need to be created independently and then linked. This is not a big problem, but it is definitely inconvenient for our teams.
This is the bigger problem - we use a different program called Craft.io to plan our big picture, and to write our Epics, releases etc. This program integrates with Jira but does not allow up to map our tickets there to the hierarchy we want in Jira, because they don't recognize Feature -> User Story as a parent-child relationship.

I saw somewhere that using Advanced Roadmaps you can create a more complex hierarchy for real, not just as a display.

Is this true?

Thank you,

Hi @atarab ,

we have implemented Container Links on Server/DC in Epic Sum Up, that gives you the ability to create these hierarchies:

We are working on this feature for cloud, too. Would you be open to let us know what the requirements are that you may use that feature? I am talking about the parent-child connection... (on Server we use a field, on cloud this is more complicated)

Hi @Andreas Haaken (APTIS) ,

First, allow me to compliment you and say the add-on looks excellent.

My issue with it would be that the containers are only there to give a visual view, but are not an issue type, and therefore don't have fields of their own.

They cannot be assigned or commented on. They cannot have a label, or any other system, or custom Jira field.

They also cannot be mapped into automatically by the integration to the external app we use, since they are not an issue-type and therefore will not be recognized.

Welcome!
