Right now my team is using Jira to organize the features and stories in our project, and we are using 4 different types of issues. And when a member is assigned to an issue, he is responsible for creating his subtasks related to the issue in question.
The point is that one of these issues is used as a milestone where we put our results (such as links to the work done), export them to an Excel spreadsheet and send them to the project coordinator for evaluation. The Excel spreadsheet is automated and automatically feeds with the data we export from Jira, but if we create subtasks in this specific issue type, we end up breaking the spreadsheet in Excel, because for some reason it just hates when this issue type has any subtasks.
I already instruct team members not to create subtasks on this issue, but they forget and do it anyway. So, to avoid this being a problem, I'd like to be able to disable at all the option to create subtasks on this specific issue only. However, the only configuration I see in Jira is to disable subtasks in the entire project, which doesn't help since we need subtasks in the other issue types.
So, is there no way to disable the option to create subtasks only in a specific issue type, while leaving it enabled in other ones?
