Hi Matthew,

The Initiative issue type is not a native issue type in Jira - you will need to create it.

In addition to @John Funk 's reply, Jira doesn't support the hierarchy you're envisioning unless you make the User Story a sub-task type, and I don't think you want to do that.

To extend your hierarchy, you're probably going to need Advanced Roadmaps (bundled with Jira Software Cloud Premium) or install Structure for Jira.

Hi @Matthew Bimbo

You can create a new Issue Type, Initiative, and then you can use issue links to create your own hierarchy above and below Epics or infact at any level.

If you would be interested in a paid app, to visualize the hierarchy based on the issue links, we have created an add-on to track the progress at each level,

Agile Tools - Epic Tree, Links Tree and Time in Status

Key features of Links Hierarchy:

Hierarchy upto 10 levels deep
Progress % on "remaining estimate" or "original estimates"
Edit Issue summary, time estimates, story points and assignee on the tree with real time updates in the progress
Rolled up percentage completion at all levels
Ability to add/remove the columns on the report

Disclaimer: I work for RVS, the vendor for this app, and I am one of the developers in the team

Hi @Matthew Bimbo ,

Another option for a 3rd party app could be Pivot Report we develop. It allows you to add new hierarchy levels with issue links:
