High Level Projects

GilK

Hi,

We are a multidiscipline company.

I use JIRA (and GH) in such a way so every group (hardware, embedded, servers, mobile) is represented as a project.

Each group has its own bugs, tasks, etc.

However, from marketing point of view there is usually a single requirements that is relevant to all departments.

for example, a new marketing requirement: Camera.

We need to develop the camera as a device (hardware group), develop its embedded software (embedded), support it in server (servers) and let the user control it via smartphone (mobile).

What would be the best way to implement such a thing in our JIRA system?

I though of a super high level of requirements, which will be splitted into epics\stories within each of the projects. what do you think? Is it possible?

Any ideas are welcome.

Thank in advance,

Janiv Ratson.

Yes this is possible. Although Jira has no notion on high-level projects or sub projects it is still possible to get this relationship in. It is some manual work though.

Create (or clone) an epic/story in every team project and a high level requirement in a overall project for marketing. Then make issue links (is in block) between the different epics and the high-level requirement.

We have seen and resolved this issues multiple times. If you would like this to be more automatic, contact us. We might help you out on that.

Regards,

Sander
