Have another Issue Type like an EPIC

Gor Greyan

Hi, Dear Community,

We have the following situation.

I need to have an Issue Type, which will be under EPIC but will act like an EPIC.

We need to have that EPIC, under which we should have some design tasks and should follow the progress of those tasks via the EPIC.

Would like to see any suggestions on how I can achieve that.

Hello @Gor Greyan

Since you are on DC, should be the same for the cloud which is issue hierarchy where you would include more issue types to be on the same level as Epic. Example:

Hi @Nikola Perisic

Thanks for the information.

But will these issue types work like EPIC?

Having Epic name and child issues?

Nikola Perisic

@Gor Greyan

They will work as Epic, since they have the hierarchy of level 1. If you have a child issue that needs to be a part of the Parent field, you would also need to include the work item type in your work item type scheme of the project that you are currently using in order for the relation to be relevant.

Hi @Nikola Perisic

Thanks a lot.

Will check and get back to you.

Hi @Nikola Perisic

I have added a ticket in the Epic hierarchy level.

I have created a ticket with the Epic Name field, but in another ticket, when I entered the Epic Link and wrote the Epic's name, it did not suggest that Epic.

Please see the screens.
