Can I sort my board with assignee, their tasks and their sub-tasks?

As a project coordinator and specifically in daily scrum meetings, I want to show my colleagues the board and give an overview - grouped by assignees, and sorted with both their tasks and sub tasks, so it's possible to see everyone's tasks and sub tasks at the same time.

 

At the moment I have two lesser well options:

I can press "group by" (right upper corner) --> "sub tasks", but then I cannot see/sort them in assignees nor task.

The other thing I can do is "groups by" --> "assignee", but then I can only see their tasks and not their sub tasks.

 

I dont know how to customize filter or JQL, but this might be an option? I looked on youtube, but others Jira looked a bit different. Mine looks like this:

Hello @Fuji 

Welcome to the Atlassian community!

From your description and screen image I believe you are working with a Team Managed project. For Team Managed projects the only way to show Subtasks on the board is by using the Group By option set to Subtasks. If you don't use that Group By option, you won't see the Subtasks on the board.

When you use that Group By option, then the parent of the subtask is displayed a a header line rather than a card. There is no option for displaying both issues and subtasks as cards in a Team Managed project's board.

 

The issues are sorted on the board based on their Rank. In a Team Managed project board there is not option to change the sort order of the issues.

 

Boards already have a built in feature for filtering based on the Assignee of the issues. Click on an Assignee's avatar at the top of the board to see only the issues assigned to that person.

 

The bottom line is that with a Team Managed project you will not be able to show both the subtasks and group issues by assignee. You can show the subtasks, using the Group By option, and filter by assignee.
