How to add a sub-task in the next-gen project type (Agility)

Sorin Bica

I'm trying the new project type, Agility, and having a few issues, but most important one is that I'm not able to add sub-tasks to a story.

Subtasks are available

Hello,

You can not add a sub-task to an Agility project yet.

Tapan Shah

Can someone from JIRA tell us when this will be possible

Danny Huisman

Please Jira, tell us when we can expect this core feature. Without it, this new way of working isn't feasible..

Romer Ventura

So the Demo video shows sub-tasks in agility / next-gen projects.. Is this not in GA just yet?

Sorin Bica

@JIRA should've never released this next-gen stuff if it's clearly not ready. Can't even customize Statuses. I'm all for dummying down the platform, but c'mon, you went to far. This product is garbage until further notice.

Tapan Shah

Looks like it is the top of their agenda: https://www.atlassian.com/roadmap/jira-software.

Funny that they bought Trello, which already had sub-tasks for ages, but they thought it would be okay to bring Trello like boards in JIRA without all the essential features

Does anyone have a workaround from a process perspective without a subtask?

Romer Ventura

I think the only posible work around, would be to make that task/story an epic. Or linking the issues, but i feel like linking the issues is soooooo waterfall...

+1 for pls hurry with this feature (and following for when announced) - thx!

+1 for sub-tasks

It's really so inconvenient:

there's no subtask for a task
there's no an ability to bind stack of tasks with a story
I can't add a rule between the tasks to make one of them a subtask
I can't add some nesting for some types of the tasks

So the one solution in new Jira view is to use what you have and accept the mess.

I agree sub-tasks would be nice.

But I completely disagree with @Sorin Bica, i like that you guys are following the agile approach to software... getting something out fast for users to respond to. I've been a JIRA user for almost 10 years and I have often been looking for a less clunky project setup. Its nice to have a slimmed down option to get up and running in minutes! I fully expect features to float in as feedback becomes apparent.

Nice work guys!

Sub-Tasks are needed can't start using next-gen projects without this critical feature. Started the migration process, disappointed to see it missing.

+1 for subtask

Vinícius Cassol

Please, allow sub-tasks asap.

Also, I can't even create a list with checkboxes to represent a kind of sub-tasks.

I'm so disappointed.

Yura Pugachev

Pleeeease, allow sub-tasks !

Maksim Chernyavskiy

Please, add sub-tasks.

+1 subtasks are essential, product should never be released without them. You can improve configuration and setup without taking out essential part of the SDLC!

Nikita King

Is there any update on when Subtasks will be implemented?

Pete Rodgers

+ 1 Sub tasks.

When are they expected?

unknown

Gimme Sub-Tasks as a christmas present please...we are start a new project at the beginning of next year and i desperately need sub-tasks for it

Vinícius Cassol

Same for me! Dear Santa, please help us!!!

Brad Homer

Ditto! Santa! Please!!!

wmontoya

+1 Please HURRY UP!

Douglas Cavalheiro

+1 for sub-tasks on "next-gen projects"

Christopher Kampmeier_a0z0q0

Switched back to classic Scrum project template in order to get sub-task support, but then found out that the roadmap feature is available only via next-gen projects. Sigh.

helder.marques

+100 for sub-tasks on "next-gen projects"

Julia

Ditto on subtasks availability being critical to next gen template.

Abhinav Gujjar

Yo! Just does not work without sub tasks. Deleting the "Next-gen" project and going back to classic.

atish pradhan

We are also waiting for this feature.

Dave Yost

Next Gen needs to get its act together. Sub Tasks is such a critical part of planning. This is awful. Atlassian needs to get their act together. This is an MVP feature.

ugh I was hoping this wasn't the case but that's how I'm working around not having sub-tasks
