Hierarchy in Plans

Gaetano Antonio Turturro

Hello, I'm trying to set up my plan:
In my project, I have Epic → Story → Task, and I want to group tasks by Epic, meaning by the parent of their parent.

Is this possible? I created a JQL filter based on Epic Link, but I lose the indentation of Epic → Task.

 

Then another question: What do you use Plans for? I mean, what is the true power of Plans?

Hello @Gaetano Antonio Turturro 

 

Yes it is possible to setup a Plan to display Epic -> Story -> Task

This is how I display my product roadmap

 

Can yo check the below items

1/ make sure that in your Issue Sources (Plan settings), you select the Epic, the issue and the sub-tasks (if you don't explicitly select one type, it will not appear).

My filter for the above is: project = PRO AND issuetype in (Epic, PRODUCT, Sub-task) and status != Done order by created DESC

2/ In the Plan settings, make sure you select the whole Hierarchy

 

If it is not working, maybe share screenshot of what is displayed

 

Regarding you other question, I'm using Plan to get consolidated view of many projects in one Timeline : each technical team is working with its own project, but at a company level, we need to consolidate information and see the dependencies.

 

Hope this helps
