Our UX initiative is a Jira project. Within that project we have created EPICs for all our products. Designs for new features and functionality are stories within those EPICs.
Our current numbering scheme does nothing to make the parent > child relationship apparent. For example if one of our EPICs is numbered as follows "UX - 911 Collaboration Service" when we create new stories to enhance the functionality of that module the numbering is unrelated. Right now new stories are auto numbering as UX -8XX. This is really confusing and there is no hierarchical relationship in the left nav, it's just a jumble of epics and stories.
It would make much more sense if a story within an EPIC had an obvious relationship.
EPIC 911
- Story 911- 01
- Story 911- 02
I'm not sure whether this is just our implementation of the product creating this disconnect in the auto numbering of EPICs and Stories or whether this is possible. I've searched on the issue and haven't found an obvious answer. Any help would be appreciated.
