Jira Structure Gantt - User story timeline not within Epic target start and end date timeline

[JK]

Hi, Is there any way to highlight, if user story Timeline is not within Epic timeline (Target Start and end date) in Structure Gantt chart view.

Example: we have defined start and end date of Epic as 01-Sep-24 to 20-Sep-24

2 Stories are created later within this epic and assigned to team members, and below start date and date date is defined

Story 1: 10-Sep-24 to 15-Sep-24

Story 2: 19-Sep-24 to 03-Oct-24

While using Structure Gantt view, we would like to have some highlight stating Story-2 is crossing the parent (Epic) timeline.

Also we do not want epic timeline to be Auto-updated, hence disabled 'Treat parent issues as groups'

Hello @JK 

it's not possible to show this on the Gantt chart, but you can use the Formula column in your structure to highlight the matching Stories. For example, if Stories are located underneath their parent Epics, you can use a formula like this:

if issuetype = "Story" and targetend > parent{targetend}: "alert"

The formula will compare each Story's Target End date value with its parent Epic's Target End values, and show Stories that end later than their Epics. You can add color and other customizations to the column to make it more visible, using Wiki markup.

I hope this helps. If you need further assistance or if you have other questions about Structure, please reach out to us directly at our support portal.
