Can you create Epics & Stories in the plan and assign them to different projects?

Hi Folks,

Apologies if this a a noob question - and yes, I have tried to find an answer in this forum and elsewhere.  I could only find a partial answer.  And I'm not really in a position to experiment to observe how it works.

The problem: We wish to have multiple Product Owners use the same Plan, into which they will create Epics and Stories - which they will own and we want to display within their projects.

The question: I know you can assign work items to Teams from within the Plan UI, but does that then create those items against their specific project?

More specifically, Epic A is intended for Team B and to appear in their backlog for Project B, and actually be created as an Epic and Stories within their project upon publishing (i.e. the Issue Key will reflect Project B)

And then, Epic C, will appear in Project D and the Issue Key will reflect Project D.

Is this how it works when you have one Plan but multiple projects and teams configured?  Or is every item created within one project only?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi @Mick Gibson ,

To create a ticket from Plan You can use  create button of plan and select relevant issue type During creation it will also ask you i which project it needs to be created. Check out the SS I am sharing.

Hope it helps!!

Oh, I see - thanks.

That isn't appearing for me right now because my current Plan only has one project - however I assume it will work the way you're showing it when I add another project to the source.

Thanks for your help.
