My goal is to create a hierarchical structure inside of epics. I'd like to represent a second level of hierarchy where tasks and stories support a given story with "relates to" links. Ideally, the issues on level 3 have both a "Relates to" link and the Epic link.
I think i've almost got this working but my current issue is that if i move an issue on level 2 of the hierarchy underneath a story it removes the epic link and i have to manually re-add it.
Is it possible to keep both the "relates to" link and the "epic link"? Would love any suggestions for how to accomplish this. Note that I don't have an advanced roadmap plugin and want to do this with native JIRA and structure capability.
Thank you!
