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
Introducing subtasks for breaking down work in next-gen projects
any news on when? whats the hold up?
Next-gen project are pretty much useless without this
Why is this question marked as answered?
Really Critical Issue. As an workaround we are using linked issues, but its has and backlog Board has no use :-(
I am going to migrate project in to the old template
🗣add sub-tasks please!!
Because the first person answered it (read: you can't). That's the answer as things stand currently.
Sub task is a MUST. I ma really disappointed about lack of certain features when started using next-gen project.
+1 linked issues can't be the permanent workaround
I'm using both next gen and old. I must admit the sub-task option is required for managing the project. The next-gen projects just look an absolute mess after a couple of months.
Reminds me of trello boards. In Trello, the boards really only have a life time of 12 months before they become an unusable mess. At that point, a (new) board would be created and the old board would be ignored.. With the next-gen projects I can see the same attitude coming out from the team. Sub-tasks are a must for bug tracking of new features. Yes you can "Link" them, but in practice the testers do not do that. Thinking about this... maybe a hybrid option could be made available. eg
I love the road map feature, but still I'm very close to shutting down my next-gen projects and moving back to the old project type. I can't wait much longer for this feature.
+1
Well i'm agree with our collegues, please we need substasks in the next-gen projects.
+100 for sub-tasks, and for child-issues to Stories.
Not sure if any one is still watching, but it seems as though the road map still says Subtasks are coming. However, I found that if you go to the next gen project settings and add an issue type, Subtask is listed there. Add it, then when you go to your User Stories you can now add a child issue which will default to subtask type. Probably not what everybody is looking for, but a step in the right direction.
Great news!
Thanks Josh!
Unfortunatels i can´t confirm that. When i go to project settings the only available options are "Epic", "Bug", "story", "task". Adding doesn´t show any other option. do i miss something?
This helps, but it would be great if we could create our own sub-task issue types so that one could create a bug sub-task.
We have a decent task that is broken down in sub-tasks, but there are also some bugs we are identifying. While we can lists these as sub-tasks it muddies the idea of which are sub-tasks to be done and which are bugs.
Creating a top-level bug issue for a task is possible too and adding it as a dependency is probably the way to go about it, but again it would make much more intuitive sense to have a bug as a 1st class child issue.
I agree with Matt. We distinguish between sprint bugs (sub to the story) and bugs (top level task) found in production. Not sure where this is on the priority list, but I would like to add my vote to it.
