Display the relation of tasks and subtasks in filter results

[Marc Dietsche]

I have created a filter that shows me all running tasks and subtasks in a project. For the filter results, I would like to be able to see the task key, epic link and the summary.
For subtaks, only the ID and subtask name are displayed in the summary, e.g. BB-133 / Debugging. The correct relation of a subtask to its parent task is therefore almost impossible to see at a glance.

Is there a way to better represent the relation of subtasks to tasks? Best case would be, that the filter result shows the parent task and in each line underneath its subtasks...

Hi @Marc Dietsche 

If you would be interested in a third party add-on, you can try out our app to view the full Jira Issue Type hierarchy of Linked issues, Portfolio/Advanced Roadmaps, Epics, and Subtasks up to 10 levels. There are multiple other features in the app to track your issues and resources as well

Agile Tools - Epic Tree, Links Tree and Time in Status 

Key features :

1) Links/Portfolio/Advanced Roadmaps Hierarchy :- View/Manage roll up for hierarchy (up to 10 levels), based on your Portfolio/Advanced Roadmaps/Issue Links parent child relationship.

2) Epic Hierarchy :- View/Manage roll up for standard Jira hierarchy. Epic -> User Story -> Subtask

3) Time in Status :- More than 7 types of Time in Status reports to track your issues.

4) Worklogs Report :- Track time spent by resources with multiple filters / category / grouping features

5) Timesheet :- View/Enter your time spent for multiple days

There is not a native feature in Jira that will sort the Search results to show you "parent" issues, then all their "child" issues next, and under each "child" issue its sub-tasks.

Can you provide us with the JQL for your filter, and a sample of the output, and provide more information concerning how the output does not meet your needs?

[Marc Dietsche]

Too bad there's no native feature. Anyways here's the JQL for the filter I am using:

project = TES AND issuetype in (Task, Sub-task) AND status in (Backlog, "In Progress", "Selected for Development")

And that's the output (german language):

As long as the Parent and Subtasks are created in order, the relation can be figured out. In case of the Subtask with the ID TES-38 I can just see it's parents Tasks name (which is Parnent 2) by hovering over the ID displayed in the Summer (TES-29)
