Haha... Yeah. What he ( @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- ) said. I guess we were typing at the same time ;)

Hi, @Dave Scaglione. That article is a little older, but what was true then is still true today. Jira, as is, is built around a simple 3-level Epic-Story-Sub-task hierarchy. It's a fundamental aspect of Jira that many of its features take for granted and around the idea that there's a rich marketplace of apps that will…

Hi, @jbedar. All Atlassian Marketplace apps are required to license their apps according to the number of licensed users in the underlying Jira (or Confluence). The marketplace vendors factor this into their pricing according to the way their products are used. In other words, if we could license Structure for say, 25% of…

From where I sit, I think Atlassian would assert Jira (and certainly Jira plus Advanced Roadmaps) can do everything you need it to, @jbedar. But only you can decide that -- whatever you want to call things. However, I agree with @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- with respect to what normally happens... And you may not like it:…

Hi, @Sofia Foradoula. There are a number of reasons why this may be true. First, assuming this is a dynamic structure, Structure for Jira will display (or not display) your issue hierarchy based on the Automation rules that were used to build it. Hint: you can view the automation rules, which may be hidden, with the…

Glad to hear you got it sorted, @Aaron Gage. And thanks for sharing the resolution with the community. If you ever need assistance with Structure / Advanced Roadmaps compatibility (apparently, not the issue here), give us a shout via support@almworks.com. We have a large number of customers who use both products and we'll…

Thanks for the additional info, @Erik Hamers. I was incorrectly assuming you were using one of the Atlassian Marketplace apps that add wbs capabilities to Jira. I.e., as far as I know, there's no way to address your use case with Jira out of the box. Maybe someone else will have suggestions. However, you'd be able to…

Hi, @Erik. Welcome to the community. The answer is very likely "yes." However, the how will depend greatly on what you are using to create your work breakdown structures. Hint: You want to look for the ability to "sum over" or "roll up" the time spent for the issues that make up the components in the wbs. If you share some…

Hi, @Amitava Mallick. I am sorry to report, no, it is not. Would you be willing to chat with me about your use case? You can find me easily on LinkedIn. -dave [ALM Works]

I second @Henri Seymour {Easy Agile}'s answer. But since I'm here, and to help you out, you're good-to-go with Structure and Structure.Gantt. -dave [ALM Works] P.S. The Universal Plugin Manager is an Atlassian thing, and it's pre-installed with every version of Jira. I think you can assume you're good-to-go with that one,…

Hi, @Naveed Ahmed. Welcome to the community. I second @Nic Brough -Adaptavist-'s simple answer. And while @Adam _SoftwarePlant_ did a good job touting his company's product, BigPicture is one of many Atlassian Marketplace apps that add additional project management capabilities to Jira. Some things you should consider when…

Shame on you, @John Funk ;) @tletz24 we (ALM Works) have quite a bit of experience working with customers who use Jira Automation with Structure. Off the top of my head, I can't imagine why this use case would "not work" in an environment with Structure + Jira Automation, but of course, the devil is in the details. Give it…

Hi, @Marco Bertolini. Unfortunately, I don't think this screenshot will clear things up. We'd need to see the automation rules (Generators) being used to create the structure. Also, we'd have to take a closer look at the Transformations you are using, too. (BTW, that's an impressive collection of Transformations.)…

Great article, @Mike Rathwell! I'm looking forward to the next installment. -dave 

Hi, @Peyush Agarwal. The simple answer is "no." Structure is a Jira app. And, like Jira itself, it's a web app. Because it's a Jira app, and users expect it to not disrupt their Jira experience, we follow Atlassian guidelines and UI design principles. Therefore, like Jira itself, we rely on the browser's zoom capabilities…

Hi, @Mohamed Imthiyas J. I agree with @Trudy P Claspill. Jira is like many enterprise software platforms. It can be used for many different use cases and has tremendous flexibility, but there are some fundamental design decisions that make it so broadly applicable. Unfortunately, some of those design decisions may also…

Hi again, @Peyush Agarwal. As I mentioned in your related post, currently the Formula column is not available in the cloud edition of Structure. The team is working hard to establish parity between the on-prem and cloud editions of Structure and ALM Works also publishes the roadmaps for its products. In your case, you can…

Hi, @Peyush Agarwal. The Formula feature is not available, yet, in the cloud version of Structure. The ALM Works team is working hard to add it — hopefully before the end of the year. You can view the Structure Cloud roadmap any time and, if you wish, you can ask to be notified when it's released via cloud@almworks.com.…

Hi, guys. Thank you, @Vikrant Yadav. Just so other readers don't get confused, the quick transformation feature has not yet arrived in Structure Cloud. The documentation link you shared, Vikrant, is for the on-prem editions of Structure. @anjali gola , your post was originally tagged for cloud and jira-cloud. Are you in…

Hi, @Pedro Pablo Alcantara. If you decide to take a closer look at Structure, feel free to reach out to us with any questions you may have about using it for your use case. Either way, best of luck to you. -dave [ALM Works]

You too. ~~~~~~~ BTW, I think your analogy works perfectly. Someday, maybe Gantt and Portfolio Management will become part of the base model, but for now, they are part of the luxury model only. To get these features some people will opt for that model, while others will choose the aftermarket approach (so they can get…

Hi, @Oscar Reques. On the surface, your comment seems a little unfair. The enterprise editions of Jira, for both cloud and on-prem platforms, include Advanced Roadmaps. Beyond that, like many platform providers, Atlassian has developed a rich ecosystem of 3rd-party app developers that add all kinds of capabilities to Jira…

Hi, @yundong.li. As @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- says you'll need an app for that. However, I am pretty sure Advanced Roadmaps (from Atlassian) is not available for Jira Server. So, you'll need an app from the Atlassian Marketplace. @Anna-BigPicture is right, too. BigPicture is one of the apps that added the capability to…

And that's not that hard to do in Vegas — as long as you're okay with the Americanized versions of international cuisine ;)

Now a serious answer... x2 on the Exhibit Hall but also in-person networking during the breaks, meals, activities, and in the halls.

Damn (that you fixed it already)... I was going to say "Teleportation between the various Team global sites (a different local cuisine in a different global city each evening)." 

My top 5: * The Keynote Sessions (both days) * A first look at Team Central: A new world of status reporting * Collaborate across teams with advanced roadmaps * From teams to Portfolio: How to truly unleash the power of agility * Learn how to request and manage app requests in the Marketplace I'm also excited to watch this…

Hello, @Arpit Tambi. Welcome to the Atlassian Community. The support team at ALM Works would be very happy to help you directly if you wish. You can reach them via cloud@almworks.com (it looks like you are on Jira Cloud) or via our service desk. I'd also be very happy to connect with you directly. You can find me easily on…

Great reminder, @Phill Fox I hear too many on-prem customers say things like "we'll start thinking about that more seriously a few weeks before our server is up for renewal." This is one of those situations where you need to give yourself enough time to ensure a smooth and relatively pain-free migration. -dave

Hi, @Stefanie Sullivan. I'm not @Martin Suntinger (obviously). Nor do I work for Atlassian. So we'll let them respond with the Atlassian perspective. First, this is definitely one of those "it depends" questions. What is it you need to do? With that info. community members may be able to formulate a better response. That…
